Teacher Testimonials
GRAPHIC NOVELS FOR VILLAGE SCHOOL
"The students at Village Elementary are enjoying our new graphic novels due to the generation of the Foundation! Thank you again!" - Megan Rasmussen, District Librarian

RLTC LENDING LIBRARY
"Amairani said she enjoys the library because it allows her to go to another place. “I am able to read books such as Goosebumps and imagine myself in the book with the characters which is fun to do”.

Another one of our students, Bethany likes having a library at transition. “I love reading, it is a fun activity to do and something I am happy to do at transition. I really like having a library and being able to pick a book to read!" - Matt Rosenberg, Teacher Assistant, RLTC

July 2017 Flood
In July 2017, the Round Lake Area experienced catastrophic flooding. Sadly, two school libraries were destroyed. Images of the flooding prompted support from local, state and regional organizations! Over 100,000 books were donated to RLAS-116 in hopes to replace the ruined books. In addition, many organizations donated monetarily - their donations helping to renovate these library/tech spaces into innovative spaces for children. The RLAS-116 Education Foundation served as a flow through organization for these donations. We are pleased to announce that Ellis Elementary School in Round Lake Beach and Murphy Elementary School in Round Lake Park are home to brand new Limitless Learning Commons!
