When one of our wonderful teachers retired at the end of last year our FMES community wanted to find a way to honor her many years at Fox Mill. So with donated supplies, time and MANY books they created a little library in her honor. The Little Library is even registered and has an official little library number that can be mapped. The "inaugural" set of books are mostly age appropriate to 4th and 5th graders.

Please visit soon!
