Alyssa and Ayesha demonstrate their reading skills

Each spring, the Hebron High School library launches a promotion to draw more students into the library, and to promote literacy. This year’s theme was “Reading is Just Plane Fun”. The Hebron Orchestras visited the library to check out the new cafe and concessions.  Students also browsed through the collection of new library books, and received a tour from the libary’s student volunteers.
