- If you have internet access and a public library account, I urge you to download Libby and/or Overdrive. Both give you digital access to books for free and can be a great way to keep our students reading during this time. If you do not have a current public library account, you can create one online at https://catalog.lex.lib.sc.us/polaris/patronaccount/selfregister.aspx?ctx=1.1033.0.0.3.
Please email me with any questions you run into and I will help to the best of my ability. sbreedlove@lex2.org
Please use the app below to investigate any issues or questions you may have.
The Media Center held a "Blind Date with a Book" challenge in the month of February and asked our Cougars to read books based ONLY on the first few sentences! Our students stepped up to the challenge and read almost exactly 200 books!!! Mrs. Yauilla and Library Assistants, Brock Jones and Selene Brant, were so excited, they threw a mini-party with all our "Date Feedback Forms."
If your child loves Diary of a Wimpy Kid...
Check out these summaries of our South Carolina Junior Book Award Nominees for the 2020-2021 school year! Students are encouraged to vote for the winner each year.
Voting is in February and any student who wishes to vote must read at least 5 of the 20 book options.

We strongly encourage purchasing the device insurance to cover any damages that your child's device may incur.
Students will be allowed to have only one outstanding balance for a repair on their account. That is, if your child turns in his or her device for repair, the device will be repaired and the chromebook returned.
Should a second repair become necessary, the cost of the first damage will need to be cleared before the device can be repaired and returned again.
Should your child lose the chromebook or incur severe damage necessitating replacement of the device, that entire cost must be paid before a new additional device will be issued.
