Did you know.... there are more libraries than Starbucks in the US? (And libraries have free WiFi, offer respite from harsh weather, quiet workspaces - most even have coffee ☕️) source: @ALALibrary quotable facts. ala.org/advocacy/quotable-fa… #fabfalcons #NationalLibraryWeek

Today was the first day since March 13, 2020 that students were back in the media center, using it as it was intended - I did not get a single photo but it was GREAT (also the 8th grade lunch felt like a time warp back 2 years ago to when they were in 6th grade 😭)

As a parent, there is nothing that makes me prouder than to see my kids giving back and sharing their love of reading at the same time. Thank you @kencen and @The_Pigeon for sharing Sidney’s #smallworks story today! kennedy-center.org/mowillems
