November is Native American Heritage Month and we're excited to offer a choice board of goodies (top right) to support you in your self-guided inquiry and exploration. Find a great list of recommended books in the library by an amazing array of fabulous Indigenous authors, plus a range of options for exploring history, arts, cultures, and present day experiences of a wide range of Native American Peoples. And don't forget to check out some great graphic novels this month on ComicsPlus. See the slideshow (bottom right) for some suggestions. Happy reading and happy exploring!

The Colchester High School Library and its Librarians strive to create an inviting, dynamic, and safe space that inspires and honors curiosity, creativity, collaboration, and inclusion. We support and recognize reading as the foundation for building understanding and knowledge. We work to build and maintain a print and digital collection of resources which exemplifies the principles of equity, celebrates diversity of thought and experience, supports lifelong learning, and encourages students to make connections through timely and up-to-date research and leisure reading materials.
