An Adventure for You is Waiting in the Library
Now that we have three full weeks of school under our belts, the students have gotten used to their new classrooms and settled into their new routines. It’s always a joy to see the excitement and anticipation in the eyes of a child when he or she is learning some thing new.
One of the biggest sources for learning is through books. Books not only provide valuable information, but they allow young readers to explore endless places and possibilities. Sometimes it takes a while to get just the right book in a child’s hand, but it’s well worth it when you watch them explore a new interest or go on an exciting adventure in their minds. Other sources of information come in the form of media, like newspapers, magazines, television and the internet.
Mrs. Christina Hutchinson is the district library clerk at Crissey, Dorr, Holland, Holloway and Springfield Middle schools. She is one of the few people who gets to work with students in multiple school buildings. She introduces them to the fun and rich resources available in the school library. Mrs. Hutchinson said the best part of being a school librarian is seeing that spark in students’ eyes when they find that book they really want. No matter your child’s interest, there are hundreds of books available in the libraries in Springfield Local Schools.
