If you refuse to add books to your collection that feature #LGBTQIA+ characters b/c you're too afraid of your community's reaction, just imagine how fearful LGBTQIA+ kids must feel living in that same community knowing that you value your own safety more than theirs.
24 Language Arts classes “broke out” of the library for orientation! Students were so engaged in learning about THEIR library space! @breakoutEDU@dcsnc
Last week in the library: Studying Holocaust displays from the NC Council on the Holocaust @ncpublicschools and a visit from a 2nd generation survivor!#DCSlibrarymedia @OGMSgrizzlies
Pretty sure some of our students experienced book love at first sight with #bookspeeddating! Trying new topics and genres and working on not “judging a book by its cover”. @OGMSgrizzlies @MrsReaderPants
My fifth graders studied the Colonial Market today. I had them each re-create a part of it using @cospaces_edu and @MergeVR.
They had a ball making these!

8th grade students cracked the #coldcase#telltaleheart@breakoutEDU! They worked together to examine elements of the story, open locks, and find clues! @OGMSgrizzlies @dcsnc
What happens when classic literature and @breakoutEDU are combined? 8th grade students find out tomorrow in a cold case/crime scene investigation! #telltaleheart#csi@aqcoons @OGMSgrizzlies @dcsnc
Our 1st visit from the Davidson County Public Library bookmobile was a huge success! Our students checked out almost all of the books that were brought and many signed up for library cards! #trendthepositive#readersareleaders @OGMSgrizzlies @dcsnc
