A Word about the Library:
This summer the BES Library was completely renovated with new furniture, paint, and a tile floor. Please stop by and see our new library.

The Brighton Elementary School library serves students in grades Pre-Kindergarten through fifth grades. Presently our library contains over 16,000 books. All parents are encouraged to visit the library anytime they can. We are in the process of ordering new books to add to our library.

THANKS YOU FOR SUPPORTING BES AND OUR LIBRARY

Campbell Soup Labels / General Mills Food Labels / Tyson’s A+ Labels

Please save your Campbell Soup, General Mills, and Tyson’s A+ food labels for our library. Mrs. Paqueo receives funds for the library for each label she collects from these companies. The money is then used to purchase and replace books. As a token of her appreciation, Mrs. Paqueo provides the students with pencils, erasers, and bookmarks for every 10 labels, and a book for every 100 labels.

Watch your grocery stores for extra bonus certificates for Campbell’s and Boxtops for Education.

Book Donations
B.E.S. would like to encourage you to donate a children's book to our library in honor of or in memory of a loved one. Once the book is received, an acknowledgment will be permanently placed inside the book cover. This is a great way to help out your child's school! Please feel free to drop by and speak with Mrs. Paqueo concerning the book titles which are needed at this time.

Rules for Checking Out Books in the Library
The students must return their books to the library each week or renew them for an additional week. If a book is lost or damaged the student must pay a replacement price for the book. If it is found and returned before I order a new book, your money will be refunded to you.
