Back to School!

"Whatever is worth doing, is worth doing well." - Philip Dormer Stanhope

School is back in session, students are smiling, and the library media center is abuzz with activity!  It has been such a joy to reconnect with returning students, meet and get to know new students, and return to the routine of the school day.  I really feel like one of the luckiest people alive to be back in the library for year two!

 This week's library classes centered around the beginning of a new school year - a walking tour of the library, how to use the OPAC (online public access catalog), class expectations, getting to know each other and of course... selecting BOOKS!  

There are some new staff additions to the library this year - and we are truly excited about them.  Mrs. Allerton has joined our library media team as an assistant.  Her knowledge of cataloging, love of literature, and kindness toward all who enter the LMC have been on full display.  She comes to us from the public library, and we are lucky to have her at SATEC!  Also, Mr. Galle, the new tech-integrationist is off to a smashing start.  His expertise on technology and art will really benefit SATEC learners coming into the LMC. Also, it's great having him here; as we have known each other a long time and are excited about finally getting to work together!
