Welcome to the FGC Library!

Welcome, Dragons!

Please check out the incredible selection of fiction, nonfiction, and audiobooks our library has to offer! I want our collection to be so popular it is hard to keep it on the shelves. 

You will come to the library once a week. We will do lessons in copyright, research, and library skills and, of course, check out!  You can have three items checked out at a time and will be able to check out more for long weekends, spring and winter break.

Please be responsible for the items you borrow from the library and are in your care: 

Use a bookmark 
Report any damage 
Return items on time

The library has three comfortable seating areas for quiet reading. Enjoy!

Summer Reading Programs

It takes practice to master any skill. Be sure to practice your reading skills over the summer by participating in a summer reading program.

The St. Louis County Library hosts a summer reading program for all ages, infant through adult. Information about the program is attached. It begins May 22.

Because your child will be going into sixth grade they will be included in the Teen Summer Reading Program. Paper copies were sent home for the program.


Click on this link to the St. Louis County Library and click on Summer Reading for more information. Because you are going to the middle school, you will be in the Teen Reading Club. There are also many events you can attend to gain points for summer reading. 

Emily McIlroy, St. Louis County librarian, spoke to our students on Wednesday, May 17, about the library's summer reading program. She has compiled her picks for our students' summer reading. (Click for the list.)












































Students can also attend library programs for "points" that count toward their reading goal.

Enjoy summer with a few good books!😋
