HOT CHOCOLATE WINTER READING CHALLENGE
All students are invited to participate in the winter reading challenge over the winter break in December. Students are challenged to read in a variety of different ways for 20 or more minutes for as many days as they can over the break. Choose a marshmallow and read in that way. Then cut the marshmallow out and paste it on the mug. Before returning to school in January, students should color the mug and put their name on the page. Return the page to the media center. All students who meet the challenge and return the page will be invited to a hot chocolate readers' celebration in January.
Don't be left out! Take the challenge. READ!

MEDIA CENTER
Because every Parkway student has access to a global library on his/her own device, the role of our library has become even more important, not just a place to house resources, but one in which to create meaning from them. The Learning Commons provides a welcoming common space that encourages exploration, creation, and collaboration between students, teachers, and a broader community. It brings together the best of the physical and digital to create learning hubs. Evolving from a combination library and computer lab into a full-service learning, research and project space, our 21st century Learning Commons will inspire students to construct new knowledge and meaning from the world around them.
