Skillin Elementary Library provides library materials to students, teachers, and families. Parents are invited to request and borrow library materials for reading aloud through their children's library accounts. Students may borrow books and audio books from any South Portland School Library though interschool loan.
The South Portland library program also provides an integrated instructional component to students. Through library visits and work in classrooms, the library program supports reading, research and technology education.
What's New In the Skillin Library
We in the Skillin Library are excited for the upcoming year. Ms. Vallely and myself have lots of plans in store for Skillin students and families. One of which is in keeping with the presidential elections that are happening in November. We will be schedule a number of election themed activities and doing the Upstart Vote for Books program. The books we ordered for this school year are being processed and cataloged and will be on the shelves for students in a couple of weeks. I have had a chance to preview many and there are some real gems. We can’t wait for classes to start and see those books flying off the shelves. Happy Reading! Ms. Stanbro
