Happy Summer!

We hope you have a relaxing, fun-filled summer. And of course, we hope you read some good books. Don't forget Galloway Summer Reading—find out all about it on our Summer Reading website. We are checking out up to 25 books to returning students so stop by the library on the last few days of school and we will help you load up with books. If you like to listen to audiobooks, take a look at our collection of Catalist Digital books (user name and password is the same as what we use for our database page). And here's the BIG NEWS...The Galloway Library now has an eBook/Audiobook account with OverDrive. Get the OverDrive app and select The Galloway School. Sign in with your network ID (this will work for current middle and upper learning students) and try out an eBook or audiobook. We are part of a consortium of independent schools, and there will be over 2,000 books available. If you have questions, please e-mail Ms. Kochel at mkochel@gallowayschool.org.

Fearlessness

This week the Galloway sixth grade team traveled to Six Flags for a lesson on roller coaster physics that included a private ride on the Superman roller coaster. These students went on their first roller coaster ride ever! It was a really awesome field trip and we thank Galloway parent John Odum for the tour.
