These Young Authors are working on the work and finishing their stories before the district deadline! In fact, they chose writing over recess today. #ccslibrarymedia #OurPES

EVERY school deserves a school librarian 💛 Someone please tell Quinta Brunson I would love to launch a worldwide campaign insisting that everything be done to ensure there is a school librarian in every school library. They are champions of literacy, they are library joy 🎉

Yesterday was another great day at #OurPES. Thanks to Ashley Patterson and Flyleaf Books our 3-5 Pandas and George Moses Horton Middle School Wildcats met with NYT Bestselling author The Last Kids on Earth Max Brallier. He inspired us to write the books we want to read and we taught him about PAWS 🐾 📝

Hey, Families! Look 🧐 around for outstanding library books. They are due May 28th, and classes who return all books earn an ice cream sandwich party! Snapshots of materials checked out should be coming home in your student's take home folder.

Stephen Hawking once said something that changed the way I interact with my team: “Quiet people have the loudest minds.” Why this is so important:

I went back to my elementary school this week and told the kids if they want to make it big in life, they gotta do 3 things—stay in school, read, and PUT THE PHONE DOWN! This is the BEST way in my experience to change your life. #FinallyHeard #AuthorTalk #RealTalk
