Bountiful Elementary Elemen-tary will be undergoing remodeling which will make it impossible for it to open but all others will be open. READING EXPERTS have long known that extensive reading, based upon student interest, is the surest way to keep students from sliding back one step during the summer for each two gained during the school year. Parents are urged to encourage en-courage their children to read for "fun" and enjoyment during the summer. Too much pressure from home, school, or other sources can often be detrimental to continued con-tinued reading growth, but encouragement and reminders of library days will pay big dividends when children return ot school in the fall. The two separate library months are designed to pick up the students where they left off just a few weeks ago and provide summer-long stimulation and reading op portunity, and then a renewal before school starts in the fall when students are beginning to look forward to the opening of school again. Libraries will be open the weeks of June 14, 21, and 28, and August 2, 9, and 16. STORY TIMES, films, tapes, filmsmps and enticing book displays will be used to help make the library and interesting place for a child to spend some time each week. Libraries will generally be open from 8:30 to 11:00 a.m. but specific times for story times, etc. may be obtained at each local school. School libraries will be open as follows: Monday, Boulton, Centerville, Clinton, Fremont, Hoi brook, Lincoln, Meadowbrook, South Bountiful, Boun-tiful, Tolman, and Wasatch. Tuesdav, Adelaide.
