Teacher Packs
"It's in the Bag!" Teacher packs are offered as a courtesy service for William Floyd School District classrooms and include materials personally chosen by our Children's Librarians. Simply send us your list of requirements (subject, fiction, non-fiction, video, etc.) and we organize your own individual teacher pack for you and your students.
Please allow one week for teacher packs to be created. Teacher packs may be picked up at the Library and borrowed for 21 days. Based on the availability and popularity of certain subjects, staff may need to limit the number of items included.

Assignment Alert
The Community Library's Assignment Alert service allows for school and library services to work together to efficiently meet the needs of our students.
