Parents, please encourage your child to participate in this month’s, “Friendship Bracelet Days,” in the Library Makerspace.
This is a great opportunity for your child to meet other creative students, network and bond. #TrojanLMCMakerspace
I want to make sure my students have exactly what they need for projects this Fall in the Library Makerspace. I've created two projects through DonorsChoose.

Your support would mean so much to my students. In return, you'll receive our heartfelt gratitude.🫶🏾

After much reflection, I have decided place Boss Librarian PD on hold for one year. During this time, the PD will be re-evaluated and assessed.

You can follow me on TikTok at @Boss_Librarian. I will be sharing videos and hosting LIVE events in preparation for the upcoming school year.
The fall Executive Board meeting schedule will be announced in September. EMIERT members are welcome to attend. Please monitor ALA Connect and our Instagram account: @EMIERT_ALA for news and announcements.

I was so proud to serve as Chair of EMIERT this year! Here are a couple of pictures from our annual, “Taste of the Town,” luncheon. My students designed and heat pressed all of the gift bags for attendees. 🥰🫶🏾🥰
