I am SO PROUD of Shannon LeCates. After completely turning around her school library as a first year librarian, I pressured her into presenting and she knocked it out of the park! 143% increase in student check out. ❤️🎉🥳🎈@ShannonLecates

Barfield students are diving deep into the world of sharks! 🦈 They’re examining shark teeth under microscopes and creating a BrainPOP movie to explore what would happen if sharks disappeared from our oceans. #STEM #FutureScientists
