If ur not paying attention to the atrocities happening in TX u need to. This is scary and could be the start of something we DON’T want: lots of #books being banned everywhere due to political issues & racism. 👀

With schools shuttered due to the pandemic, are kids still reading? They are, according to data from Follett. Here are the top 25 lists for ebooks and audiobooks for grades K–3, 3–6, 5–8, and young adult titles. https://t.co/xjKNuinonD

@mgarffer who deeply impressed a gentleman neighbor who toured during ribbon cutting and was blown away by her nautical decor and knowledge. I think one of her class flags must spell A+ because we definitely passed his test! #VeramendiThankful

[Melanie Bowen @MelPenBow]

@mgarffer Thankful for an amazing friend who indulges such whacky nerdy behaviors!! And for a whole team who I abandoned a nice lunch with to look at shadows on cardboard in a parking lot... and you all still talk to me! #VeramendiThankful

[Melanie Bowen @MelPenBow]

So much enrichment & character building happening with our Specials Team. Karen Flora's calm & steady interactions, Dixie Gaona's fun competitions, & Joade Harris is the master of daycare dismissal always ready and willing to talk with the kids about anything! #VeramendiThankful

[Melanie Bowen @MelPenBow]

Leaders that encourage and are supportive. David MacRoberts and Kelly Spencer, working under your leadership and vision is a dream come true. #VeramendiThankful

[Melanie Bowen @MelPenBow]

What an awesome front office staff we have, Celina Garcia, Diane Dziuban, Samantha Villarreal are on top of it all and always helping with a smile! #VeramendiThankful

[Melanie Bowen @MelPenBow]

Kelly Martin for keeping everything well stocked and helping me get orders in speedily! I'm in awe! #VeramendiThankful

[Melanie Bowen @MelPenBow]

All the wonderful teachers at Veramendi that allow me to be a literacy partner with them! A shout out to Haley Krock collaborating on a research lesson and Randall Kasberg for involving family members of her students to do a reading challenge! #VeramendiThankful

[Melanie Bowen @MelPenBow]

Jennifer Mulero for rocking the idea lab. Many classes come to library right after and are still pumped about how much fun they had! #VeramendiThankful
