MSLA Bookmark Contest


Every year, the Massachusetts School Library Association (MSLA) sponsors a bookmark contest based around a specific theme for students in grades K-12. This year’s theme is School Libraries: Something for Everyone. Students are encouraged to design a bookmark based on this theme- think about the things besides books that our media center offers!



WBMHS will choose three winners in each division (Div. 3: grades 4-6 and Div. 4: grades 7-12) from our school to enter into the statewide contest. Entries will be considered by a team of judges. The winners and honorable mentions in each division will be awarded prizes at the State House in March 31, 2014.

See Mrs. Klemm or Miss Zell for entry forms or click here. Entries must be submitted by January 31, 2014.
