How We Build the Lenape Library Collection
Students the age of our Lenape students learn Community and Kindness, Respect and Responsibility, through the environments we create and the interactions we encourage. The language we use requires appropriate use in context. Our School Library maintains, grows, and utilizes, a collection that fosters Community through the Mirrors and Windows idea. This concept allows students to see themselves and build identity, as well as provides access to other experiences that may seem unfamiliar, and yet are relatable. Stories and informational text contribute to nurturing a child's sense of self in the world. Compassion and Empathy grow from the place of the Golden Rule - treat others as you want to be treated.
