As the school year is winding down, the inevitable evaluation conference looms. While others dread this time, I truly love being able to sit down and discuss the strengths and weaknesses of our library program. This has been an amazing year from the start of our innovation station, our #ADUBshelfies, professional development, to the reading initiatives we've put in place to let students have more voice in our decisions to library collection development, and beyond. Below is a snapchat of the library as of Monday this week. We have a lot to be proud of! The number one is how our circulation statistics have increased dramatically since I have filled the very large shoes of my predecessor and genrefied the library and those statistics correlate with the increase of Lexile measures across the grade levels. By providing students books they want to read, asking for their opinions on our collection, and maintaining a high-interest collection of new releases in specific genres, students feel they are represented in their reading material, an essential component to encouraging adolescents to read.
