Under the heading "FILTER BY TYPE" in the navigation bar, you will see a list of options such as E, EM, EMH, M, H, etc. These indicate the target audience for the session. Some sessions target a range of ages (such as EM or elementary and middle levels) and others are more narrow (such as H or high school level only). Here is the key:

P = Pre-K
E = Elementary
M = Middle
H = High
G = Graduate

I love working in our welcoming, vibrant library, connecting students with good books. I also enjoy collaborating with teachers in our school to help support their work and enrich what students are learning in their classrooms. My go-to genre is realistic fiction, but I love growing as a reader when students tell me what they think I should read next!
