OLCHS Media Center

@LindaRandom Ms. Camacho, we are looking to possibly book Bianca Xunise for a paid speaker opportunity at Oak Lawn Community High School in Oak Lawn, IL in April 2024. Please contact us. Thanks!

I'm on Bluesky, this time under LindaCamacho instead of LindaRandom 😀

We’re proud to announce Media Center Student of the Quarter - Latifa! 💚 You won’t find someone more kind & helpful (before, during or after school!). Did we mention she’s a voracious reader + treasured member of Book Club, too?! #olchspride #luckytohaveyou

Today, in the student cafe, @olpl_ya shared lots of stuff BEYOND BOOKS that can be checked out from the OLPL. Anyone need a Polaroid camera? Creative cookie tin?? Karaoke microphone??? #olchspride #librariesareawesome #beyondbooks

Having a hard time captioning what a DELIGHTFUL day we had with the @islamicschoollibrarian She was knowledgeable, funny, connected with our students, and engaged our staff in thoughtful discussions.

The Media Center is on the cover of The Daily Southtown! The Human Library continues to be one of our favorite events. Thank you to all the participants who make this event what it is!

OLCHS Gaming Club transformed the Media Center into a packed 12-school esports tournament on Saturday. Over 100 students participated in the new event! #olchspride #readyplayerone (Photo by @olchs )

The Media Center is so lucky to have Aidan Alonso to nominate as student of the quarter! He goes the extra mile to help, often staying after school, rearranging shelves, or setting up displays. He is kind and jovial and a role model for other Spartans!

Thank you to all of our ‘authors’ and our ‘readers’ who attended the Human Library today. The Books enjoyed telling their tales, and the Readers didn’t want to the stories to end! Thank you everyone for participating! #humanlibrary #olchspride

Check out the titles of our ‘Human Books’ and join us this Thursday during Spartan Plus. #olchspride #globalsocietyfest

Mr Bielski took us on a lovely (& just about local!) adventure. Cool way to spend a c❄️ld day! (photos by M.Bielski) #olchspride #dunes

Happy Valentine’s Day! ❤️ Stop by the Media Center to write a sweet Valentine. #olchspride #valentines #lovetoall❤️

Spartans are incredibly generous! 🥰 Scott made each of us orange foxes on his personal 3D printer. Edwin brought each of us tiny tortilla makers from Mexico. #olchspride #luckytohaveyou

Coming home from the Future of EdTech Conference with so many tools and tips! Looking forward to sharing them all! #olchspride #fetc

Librarians! @aisled_org is accepting applications for its 2023 conference. Apply! Apply! Spread the word! Mrs Sidlow & Mrs Wholley are on the planning committee & looking for the best submissions possible. #olchspride

Aaaaand relax. Winter break has started. Cozy up with a great read always available as an ebook or audiobook on SORA.

And a Merry Christmas to Mrs. Wholley! Thank you to ZZ and Selena for the VERY thoughtful gift! We are so lucky to have you in our community!

Dedication is over 40 students skipping lunch with friends to browse books to read over winter break. The Media Center rewarded these golden-ticket readers with pizza… and hot new titles! #olchspride #spartansread

Our annual Book Over Break celebration kept staff well-fed & well-read today! #olchspride #spartansread
