With Thanks to West Side Senior Center

for Paula Gray Knitting Day

From WCS Librarian Katie Parker

"The Waterville Junior/Senior High School Library was pleased to receive a large donation of knitting supplies from the West Side Senior Citizen Center in Utica, NY. Recently, the Waterville Junior/Senior High School hosted the first annual "Paula Gray Knitting Day," @ the school library. Under the guidance of Kate Hobaica, MaryBeth VanDenbergh, Colleen Bogan, Debby Olin, and Debbie Barnes, Waterville Junior/Senior High School students explored knitting and crocheting. Students continue to hone their skills in the library during study hall. The staff of the Waterville Junior/Senior High School Library would like to express their gratitude to those at the West Side Senior Citizen Center for supporting our students’ interests."

Memorial Park Elementary celebrates Beverly Cleary's 100th Birthday

Tuesday, April 12, 2016, students in Mrs. Olmstead’s kindergarten class at Memorial Park Elementary School celebrated acclaimed children’s author,

Beverly Cleary’s 100th birthday in the school library. With what Cleary’s most well-known character, Ramona

Quimby, would refer to as “a great big noisy fuss,” kindergartners sang “Happy Birthday,” counted to 100 by tens, listened to Mrs. Parker read

The Growing-Up Feet, a picture book by the author,

and enjoyed cupcakes in her honor.

Later in the day, all students at MPS celebrated Beverly Cleary’s birthday with a “Drop Everything And Read!” Cleary strongly advocates making the act of reading a priority activity.

As light passes through these hexagon-shaped ice crystals, it is bent at a 22 degree angle, creating a halo 22 degrees in radius (or 44 degrees in diameter). A double halo, sometimes with spokes, may be seen on rare occasions when light reflects off water or ice. The prism effect of light passing through these six-sided ice crystals separates the light in...
