Morton FC Library

So honored to have @jetchez sharing the inspiration behind “We Are Not From Here” w/our students. “I wrote it to honor the migrant children. This could not be forgotten or ignored. I hope I am honoring the children who made this horrendous journey on La Bestia.” #mortonpride

Angels walk among us. @AllSaintsWS, Laidlaw, & McClure JH @FDCMcClure figured out how to make the FC Coat/Food Drive work during a global pandemic. They embraced our Morton families & provided warmth for the body & soul. We are humbled by your generosity. #mortonpride

@DrKMattson Yes - very interested. Multiple decks for my district.

Hey #digcit friends. I need some feedback. I have about 50 #digcit related “would you rather?” prompts & am considering turning them into a deck of cards for use in classrooms. Below is a sample front/back of one card. Would you buy? What’s max you would spend?

Happy Halloween from the FC Library! Here's a treat for you - enjoy the gallery of pumpkins from our second annual Literary Pumpkin Decorating Contest! #mortonpride sway.office.com/nbxnhpYqCyziQc…

I’ve run out of pumpkins 😩 40 students/staff have registered for the 2nd annual Literary Pumpkin Decorating Contest! Love the enthusiasm! Lots of pumpkin pick-ups today! #mortonpride

Last class, after 3 solid weeks of virtual library orientations. Plus a bunch of book checkouts. Happy day 😀 #mortonpride

@grbrunton Highlight of my school year. Love that you included the backpack. Where’s the new lunch box?

@TLT16 Dreamland Burning by Jennifer Latham. Fantastic historical fiction about the Tulsa race riots. Excellent twist at the end. Couldn’t put it down.

@NYPLRecommends @Meg_Medina A Gentleman in Moscow by Amor Towles

@EastCCCenter @Morton201 @RoseHulman Congrats to my awesome former FC Book Club member! I knew you were destined for greatness!!!

It's National School Lunch Hero Day, but these folks are heroes every single day! Our deepest thanks/appreciation to our FC foodservice heroes for providing such a critical service & for their herculean efforts to feed/care for our FC community. #mortonpride

@DianaLRendina Not beanbags but my high schoolers love the Demco BackJack floor seating - I bought 12 of the Tuff Duck Oversize. Super durable and easy to stack. They race to them every day! demco.com/backjack-reg-f…

Did it - hit 1000! Gotta live up to my promise & share the hidden chocolate with the family. Thanks for staying connected with the FC Library - this keeps me going. Can't wait to get back and connect in person! smore.com/3awbv #mortonpride

I miss my FC Library & all the students who brought it to life each day. In spite of our temporary new normal, kids are still "visiting" the library! Will break out my stash of hidden chocolate & celebrate w/the fam when we hit 1000! 😉 smore.com/3awbv #mortonpride

@Miyahoka Happy Birthday. Be healthy. Stay Safe. You r loved.

I’m so blessed to serve in a district that values the importance of school libraries! I love my FC Library and I miss the hundreds of students we serve each day! Thank you ⁦@Morton201⁩ #mortonpride facebook.com/12410158430800…
