FCAT is over!!! You can now breathe a sigh of relief! I have to say that in all of the classes I covered, everyone seemed to be working hard and trying their best. I was very proud of our students!!

We are winding down. School will be out before we know it. Continue to get those great scores on your AR tests!!!

Our AR Reading List is online at the Orange County Public Library. You can check their website at www.ocls.info When you get to the website go to catalog and click on “Check for Your School's Accelerated Reader List”. ****

You can also check by going to http://www.ocls.info/Children/KidsConnect/book_stuff.asp. or at the links on the school website under Destiny and Media Center.

****Due to funding, the Public Library can only update their site occasionally. But you can always check our website for an updated AR Reading List just by going to Reading List under Resources.

Below you will find the Sunshine State Books for this school year.
