On February 2, 2010, Virgo students were treated by a visit from Rhonda Bellamy. Ms. Bellamy was a speaker during the school's celebration of Black History Month. During the visit, Ms. Bellamy presented an autographed copy of her book, Moving Forward Together: A Community Remembers 1898.
Check it out on the circulation desk during your next visit.
Also, by student demand, the school purchased four box sets of Percy Jackson & the Olympians which includes the following titles in the series: The Lightning Thief, The Sea of Monsters, and The Titan's Curse.
The movie version of The Lightning Thief is coming to theaters soon. Read the book first and make comparisons. I bet you like the book better!!
