“The students are able to come in and get books. And not only that, but they’re able to have an experience when they come into the library. So, that will spark their love for reading and that’s the goal of everything,” she said.
CCISD is in the process of combining more of the smaller schools. A combination of two schools is also proposed in the 2024 Bond.
