📚🪩 We celebrated a HUGE accomplishment at MMSOA with a silent disco for our entire middle school after students read and logged more than 2 MILLION minutes on Beanstack during the 2025–2026 school year! 🎉

The celebration included two fun photo walls with a custom printed Beanstack photo strip. A life-size Benny the Bean (aka Dr. Canfield) even made an appearance to congratulate our readers! 📸

Watching hundreds of students silently disco together while celebrating reading was truly unforgettable. What an amazing experience for our school community!

We are so proud of our readers and grateful for the excitement our students brought to reading all year long. 🪩📚

Library Book Fair News

Our school community continues to amaze us! 💙

A heartfelt THANK YOU to our incredible students, families, staff, and community members for supporting all three of our Scholastic Book Fairs this year. Because of your enthusiasm and generosity, our fairs were a tremendous success and helped continue building a strong culture of reading at Marrington Middle School of the Arts.

As highlighted in our attached Impact Report, our students purchased an incredible 1,590 books — the equivalent of 286,200 minutes of reading! Through generous Share the Fair donations, we were also able to provide 33 books to students in need.

“Students will read if we give them the books, the time, and the enthusiastic encouragement to do so.”

Thank you for helping us put books into students’ hands and encouraging a lifelong love of reading. Watching our students get excited about books is one of the greatest joys of what we do, and your support makes it all possible! 📖
-Mrs. Courtney & Mrs. Fisher
