Spring Break has arrived and to help the Guadalupe Library get a head start on collecting any overdue books, we challenge the whole school to check out and read two library books and return the week after Spring Break. 

Students get to choose a fun bookmark and a raffle ticket for every book they've read. We have some fun prizes to choose from: fun sunglasses, crystal necklaces, and a Deluxe Season Pass to Santa Cruz Beach Boardwalk!


Since TK and Kinder students don't check out books, families can read a book at home to qualify. Parents in TK and Kinder have received an email from GHSC with a link to the submission form. You may only submit two books per TK/Kinder student on the form.

Raffle Winners will receive a PRIZE CLAIM TICKET from their teacher. This ticket can be redeemed in the LIBRARY starting the week of 4/29. Winner names will also be shared on Good Morning Guadalupe! Later that week, the video will be shared on the GHSC Facebook page and Principal Barocio's newsletter.

REMINDER: Students in 1/2/3/4/5 grades can only get a raffle ticket by returning a library book they read to the library the week of 4/15 - 4/19.
