Reading Bowl Teams Compete

The ML Team: Anna, Talia, Rachel, Ms. Kochel, Ethan, Emi,
Ms. Hunter, and Julia

On Saturday, January 24, Galloway's ML and UL Reading Bowl Teams competed in the Fulton County Helen Ruffin Reading Bowl Competition at Riverwood High School. ML was respresented by a team made up of four sixth graders and two eighth graders. The ML team won several rounds and took fifth place out of 14 teams.

The UL Team: Cameron, Sophia, Molly, John, and Jennifer

The UL team, consisting of five UL students, took fourth place in the high school division. All the team members read some new and interesting books and enjoyed spending the day with other students who love to read.

We are excited about our new carpet and paint, but also about our new media stations. We now have four TVs set up for screen sharing in the Library and Portal. Students can work in small groups and share the screens using AirPlay. Here you see Mr. Boswell's 6th graders being the first to try out our mobile media cart as they plan a group presentation about our library's databases.
