2024-2025 Bluebonnet Nominees
About the Bluebonnet Program
The Texas Bluebonnet Award is given annually to one of 20 nominees selected by the Texas Library Association. Students in grades 3-6 must read 5 of the 20 books nominated for the award in order to be eligible to vote for their favorite book. Voting occurs near the end of January. We highly encourage student participation and offer students means to track their progress from August to January.
Library Volunteers
Our library welcomes parents and community members who are interested in helping the library in its mission to grow readers, lifelong learners, and explorers. Our library circulates over a thousand books each week, and our volunteers are a critical part of our success. The work of our volunteers allows the librarian to spend time working with students in both whole class and small groups, provide reading guidance to students, collaborate with teachers, and complete the necessary tasks to manage the library program. Library volunteers have the unique opportunity to observe students get excited about reading as they search for the just right book and enjoy watching students collaborate in projects that challenge their thinking.
Interested in volunteering? Please follow the steps below to get signed up as a library volunteer:
1. Complete the Conroe ISD online volunteer form
2. Email the librarian to schedule a time to come in and learn about volunteer procedures and the library schedule: ashafer@conroeisd.net
We will occasionally have special events such as the fall and spring book fairs that require lots of help. Please email if you are interested in helping at a book fair!
