Letter: Grateful for wonderful and supportive library

Posted by Paula Scott on Friday, October 8, 2021

Ada Library is the BEST! I am a mother to three young children and a Reading Specialist at Ada Elementary School. As you can imagine, my life revolves around books and reading! I’m so grateful to live in a community with a wonderful and supportive library.

As a mother, my children have loved the Summer Reading Program. The engaging events and fun prizes keep them entertained the entire summer. The book selection is vast and caters to so many interests. I always leave the Ada Library with a new favorite author for my readers at school and my children at home.

Letter to editor: More protection in schools from the coronavirus

Posted by Paula Scott on Thursday, September 2, 2021

Dear Ada Icon,

Recently, parents of Ada school children were sent a message from school administrators about an uptick in positive Covid tests among Ada students. This message made it clear that the school system is taking precautions to make sure the schools are cleaned thoroughly, and to quarantine the students who have tested positive in their homes. Parents were also cautioned not to send their children to school if they show symptoms of COVID-19. All of this is so that other students do not become infected also.
