We have just one more week until our winter break! One of the highlights from our week here in the library was our Westward Expansion Museum. The students from the Opitz/Parnell pod were able to view the work of their classmates.

Happy weekend, McKelvie! What a busy week we had here in the library. We had book tastings, note taking classes, works cited lessons using a citation generator called MyBib, and we learned how to create a web page using Adobe Creative Cloud Express (formally Adobe Spark) with our Digital Learning Specialist, Susan Cavanaugh. This was in addition to having students and staff circulate through the library getting what they needed. This is a bustling space and I love it! Our school library is extremely active. With the temperatures warming up for Saturday, I am dreaming of spring. Please do not forget about the 2022 Fisher Cats Reading Challenge.
