Afterschool book club encourages love for reading

By Edgar Rodriguez

 

The afterschool book club started last year by the Librarian Ms. Sivil. Students and teachers were invited to join. The book club meets once a month in the library from 3:30 p.m to 5:00 p.m. During this program, students discuss the book that they read and then get a new book. The goal of the program is for students to become better readers and nurture a love for reading. There are 37 students in the book club. Students have read Among the Hidden by Margaret Haddix and Inkheart by Cornelia Funke.
