Our @Engelhard_Elem Lions just had an amazing virtual visit with @varianjohnson! They learned about his childhood, his books, and his favorite ice cream flavor. 😊Thank you for inspiring our young writers! @JCPS_LMS#jcpslibraries@LITbyMackin
We prioritize diversity in school libraries because when children see themselves in books, they see themselves as worthy. https://t.co/jVYCI9NTtO @JCPS_LMS@JCPSLMSDrLynn#jcpslibraries
Closing out LSA 2021 & my last Institute/Academy in a big way with a trifecta of @jenniferlagarde@cicelythegreat and @jewell_p_rhodes ! The learning joy flowed from one to the next and showered our librarians with new energy and excitement! Thanks to ALL! #JCPSLSA2021@JCPS_LMS
"If you are afraid to have LBGTQ books in your library, imagine how that child feels in your school." Students need representation in the books they read! @cicelythegreat#READWOKE#JCPSLSA2021#JCPSLibraries
I don’t speak at many #library conferences that are opened by the superintendent who uses their time to recognize that championing kids means also championing librarians! Thank you @JCPSSuper for supporting and honoring #jcpsLSA2021#jcpslibrarieslibrarians this morning!
