Bristol Elementary School
Starting in the fall of 2016 we partnered with Mrs. LaRochelle's classroom to do monthly programs at the library. Students are a read a story and are able to check out books. They are taught about the library, the catalog, and are often given projects that connect them with the library. Other classes also visit the library for class field trips. We also make sure to attend the yearly open house and other events.
