Bureau Valley Elementary Schools are excited for the second year of our district-wide book club called One School, One Book. Today all elementary students were fortunate enough to magically find out their book would be Kenny & the Dragon by Tony DiTerlizzi. Thank you to our guest magician who revealed our book for this year.
Each family will once again be receiving their own copy of the book and will be asked to read the story together at home over the next six weeks. Let's enjoy the book for the next six weeks together!
Go Storm!
