Library Crew is a select group of 4th and 5th
grade students who are trained in the ways of the library and who help the library run smoothly. Any 4th or 5th grade student may apply, but not every student will be selected. The choice will be made based on the student's application and teacher reference, as well as how much more room there is on the roster. (Mrs. Long tries to keep the number of Library Crew kids under 30). Please see the document "Library Crew Information" on the right for more about the Library Crew. Important DatesAll training sessions begin immediately after school and end at 3:30. Please make sure you have arranged for transportation.

Library Crew Online PracticeOrder in the Library is the online game that students must pass to graduate to each level of the Library Crew. You can practice at home!
Library Crew LevelsThese levels are inclusive. That means that each level includes the criteria of all the ones before it, as well as new criteria. For example, if you reach the level of Master, that means you can do all of the things in the Apprentice level and the Expert level, as well as all the things in the Master level. Students will go through training to reach each level. For a schedule of training, please see the document "Library Crew Information" on the right.
