The COVID-19 pandemic has had one big impact on schools and one of the biggest hits has been the lack of access to libraries.

William Grayson has adopted a new program called Take a Book, Keep a Book where a shelf full of books is placed in front of the school every day for the community.

It holds about 100 books and has material for all ages and reading levels.

Vice Principal Robin Heshka.

"Our goal as a school is to get as many books into the hands of as many kids as we can. We thought that was a great way for kids, families, and community members to come in and take one, two, or 10 books it doesn't really matter, we fill it back up every day."

Heshka detailed what the response has been so far.

"It's been really good actually. We tried to get it out on social media because I think at the beginning when you see something like that you aren't really sure. We had some people come up to it and look, and back away. We wanted people to know that it's out there for them. They don't have to ask, and they don't have to tell anybody."

Heshka says being able to give back to the community and help kids feels amazing.
