The First Two Weeks of School

For the next two weeks, our library staff will be busy preparing to serve our students.  Huntsville City Schools' library media specialists have been tasked with cataloging and checking out student laptops and iPads.  I am very excited about our new one-to-one program and am working to get the appropriate hardware out to your student.  Additionally, I will be working to roster new students into the Pearson Learnings online program.  Our library staff will also work to provide each Providence student with their library ID (for PK and K), their library folder (for 1st through 5th grades), and their library card (for 8th grade).  This involves printing barcodes for each student and attaching them to the appropriate vehicle, so students can check library books out in an efficient manner.  Our goal is that student check out will begin September 4th.  In the meantime, teachers will be able to check out class sets of books for your student's use.  We are very much looking forward to seeing your student in our library media center!
