Libraries open the door to a world of literacy. During #NationalLibraryWeek, we celebrate their role in helping students grow and succeed. Too many students are not reading proficiently, and supporting literacy locally matters more than ever. Take a trip this week and help your kids choose their next adventure.

Our 3rd graders wrapped up the Genre Reading Challenge today with Alliance of Therapy Dogs! Students who completed 5 of 6 challenges got to read their favorite stories to these amazing furry friends. What a magical celebration of reading! 📚💕@CherokeeSchools @CcsdMedia

“Everyone in this building loves some Kimmy,” Principal Justin Sanderson said. “She makes this place magical on a daily basis. Everyone is so proud of you, and we love you so much.” Congratulations to Kim George of Mill Creek Middle School, who was surprised today with the news she’s our CCSD Media Specialist of the Year!  Our media specialists serve far beyond their role as library managers -- they are certified educators who teach students about literacy, technology, research, digital citizenship, and more.  Thank you to our School Board for its laser focus on ensuring our students are learning more, growing more, and achieving more in our classrooms than they could anywhere else and thank you to Credit Union of Georgia for sponsoring today’s award gifts. #CCSDElevateTheExcellence
