The Library asks everyone to "Pay It Forward".....

The power to "Pay It Forward" begins with each and everyone of us.

Let's begin 2009 with a revolution with each and every of us. The power of paying it forward effects not just one person but it snowballs to inspire and educate each and every of us. Let's join hands in the power of "Pay It Forward" by demonstrating the six pillars of character which are:

Fairness, Citizenship, Trustworthiness, Respect, Caring, Responsiblity.

Teachers turn in your names of students to the Library that have excelled in this movement of "Pay it Forward"
