Our larval Painted Lady Butterflies are underway, preparing chrysalises! We researched to learn about their amazing characteristics and together, we wrote to inform others. We’re thrilled to release them in RFIS pollinator Garden! @RFIShuskies @CosterFRSD

Libraries: A place where there is something for everyone and where all voices are heard. A place of great collaboration, idea generation, research, and where a love for reading begins. A place where a single librarian can touch the lives of hundreds of students. Farewell.
