10...9...8...7...6...5...4...3...2...1...It's Book Blast time!!!!
Hello North Mercer Families!!! Our annual Book Blast has begun, and once again we're excited to partner with Books Are Fun and the Book Blast program to grow our students' home libraries and encourage more reading over screen time! Tonight, we're asking you to take 7 minutes to support your Student Home Library initiative.
Today, our students learned about the Book Blast Program and the importance of having their own books at home. Tonight, we are asking you to take 7 minutes to support our Student Home Library initiative.
Get started here: https://app.booksarefun.com/NMercerSch64661
How it works:
Click the link and register your student(s).
Invite at least 10 friends or family to support your student(s). (Info is secure and only used for this program.)
Need help? Watch this short video: Family Explainer Video
Win a trip to Disney!
Each supporter who clicks your student's link earns an entry for a chance to win a Disney trip. More clicks = more entries! For example, if five different people click the link, your family gets five entries into the drawing!
Pro Tip: After sending invitations, follow up with a phone call to make sure they received the message.
Why I love this program:
Every student gets new, age-appropriate books.
100% of contributions go to books and classroom supplies.
Takes less than 10 minutes and NO financial requirement from you.
Check out the attached book list—it's amazing!
More books at home = more reading! We're aiming for 100% participation this year!! See Book Blast in action at Fulton Elementary: Fulton Elementary News Clip Thank you for helping our school and community.
Wishing you all the success in your Book Blast Secret Mission,
Mrs. Mason (PK-12 School Librarian)

Our 3rd graders wrapped up Read Across America Week with Day 5: Camp Reads-a-Lot! ⛺📚 Students cozied up around their “camp” spots, grabbed their favorite books, and spent time enjoying the adventure of reading together. It was the perfect way to end a week full of fun, creativity, and discovering new stories! 🔦
Our 3rd graders had a blast celebrating Read Across America Week with a fun “Book Tasting!” 📚 Students sampled books from different genres, thinking about what they liked or didn’t like, whether the author caught their attention, and if the book made them want to keep reading. To make the experience even sweeter, they enjoyed snacks and were served specialty drinks by our awesome high school “baristas.” It was a great day of discovering new books and building a love for reading! ☕📖✨
Our 3rd graders have been having a blast celebrating Read Across America Week! 📚 They’ve enjoyed fun dress-up days and have been exploring the building to find cozy and creative spots to sit and read. It’s been so much fun seeing their excitement for books and watching their love of reading grow!
Tattoo Your Teacher Day was a HIT! 🎉
Our students earned up to 9 tattoos each for showing individual growth on their ELA and Math iReady scores — and they showed UP! 💪📚
Today, 300 tattoos were handed out and proudly applied to our amazing teachers during a super fun assembly. The laughter was nonstop, the teachers were great sports, and the school spirit was through the roof!
We are beyond proud of our students for their hard work and growth. They earned every single tattoo — and definitely enjoyed putting them to good use! 🙌✨
Join us for North Mercer’s Title I Game Night on Monday, March 23rd! 🎲♟️
Bring the whole family for an evening of fun, games, and time together. We can’t wait to see our Cardinal families there! ❤️

We are incredibly thankful for our school counselor, Melissa Hill! While School Counselor Appreciation Week only comes once a year, the impact she makes is felt every single day. ❤️
Mrs. Hill pours her heart into serving our students from preschool through our seniors. She takes the time to listen, support, encourage, and guide — always leading with kindness and compassion. No matter the grade level or the need, she shows up with a smile and a caring spirit.
North Mercer is truly blessed to have someone who loves our students so well and works tirelessly behind the scenes to help them succeed. Thank you, Mrs. Hill, for everything you do — this week and every week! 🖤❤️
