Black-Eyed Susan Reading Project

Congratulations to all who participated in the 2011 - 2012 Black-Eyed Suan reading program.  The party was held on March 26, and was a huge success!  This year, 26 students completed projects and were invited to the party, making this the biggest Black-Eyed Susan party ever at TPMS! Watch the video posted above to see scenes from the party.

It's not too soon to get started on reading next year's Black-Eyed Susan nominated books!  You must read 3 nominated books, and complete a project about 1 book to be invited to the party. The names of the 2012 -2013 nominees have just been released, and are listed below.  These titles make great summer reading.
