Students are participating in a new reading program this year co-sponsored by the public library and the school media center. "Cafe Book" is open to all seventh-and eighth-grade students. Approximately 104 students attended the first meeting, where they learned about the program and checked out books. Cafe Book will meet every other week during lunch.

Students will eat their lunches in the media center and discuss the books they have read. Cafe Book will continue through January.
