To help kids (and parents) prepare for that inaugural school bus ride, Chesterfield Public Library invites you to My First School Bus. This annual program gives pre-kindergarten and kindergarten students a chance to practice getting on and off a real school bus while learning about school bus safety with Chesterfield County Public Schools and Chesterfield County Police Department.
Each session will have a bus with accessibility equipment. This session will have a bilingual driver / Esta sesión contará con un conductor bilingüe.
All rising pre-K and Kindergarten students are welcome to participate in the information session portion of the program. Only rising CCPS students will be allowed to board the bus. Children in other school systems may participate in the presentation part of the program, but may not board the school bus.
Please register only the children who will be attending.

In 2004, Chesterfield County residents voted in favor of a bond issuance to build a new library in the Courthouse Road area. A site was selected thanks to a generous donation from Mr. Jim Craze. Ground was broken for the new library on November 14, 2013. The North Courthouse Road Library is a 20,000 square foot state-of-the-art library designed for LEED (Leadership in Energy and and Environmental Design) certification. Site and building features include a system for recycling rainwater, protection of existing wetlands, rapidly renewable bamboo panels at book stacks and more. Library service features include a multi-function flexible meeting room, a collaborative working space for business owners, and an outdoor reading veranda.
