School library at NH-M gets grant funds

[SEPT. 21, 2000]  Over the past year, the New Holland-Middletown (NH-M) School, with grades kindergarten through three located in New Holland and grades four through eight located in Middletown, has seen some vast improvements in their school library. As recipients of nearly $10,000 in grant funds, NH-M has been able to purchase new equipment including a computer scanner, printer, a telephone, answering machine, fax line and fax machine. The school has also updated their reference materials by adding a set of World Book 2000 Encyclopedias, Student Encyclopedias and Child Craft.

In addition, grant funds were used to fund a new reading management program entitled "Scholastic’s Reading Counts," to be implemented this fall. The program integrates independent reading with computer quizzes. The computer tracks students’ progress and awards points accordingly. These points are then used in a schoolwide reward system to encourage independent reading. Denise Bartman will head up the program at the primary building, and Alice Kettner will oversee "Reading Counts" for the Middletown building.

According to Alice Kettner, NH-M librarian, "The grant funds have been a real blessing in helping our school add much-needed books, software and equipment."

The majority of grant funds were received from the Illinois Secretary of State’s Office. NH-M also received a generous foundation grant, and funds were designated by the school board to help with a matching funds proposal.

For more information, contact Alice Kettner at (217) 445-2146.
