SCASDReads: You Matter

The SCASDReads theme in 2022 was You Matter. In this year, the librarians were inspired by the picture book You Matter by Christian Robinson. As we began to emerge from the height of the global pandemic, the goal was simply to spread the message that everyone in our community--every single individual--matters here at SCASD. Our students and faculty rose to the occasion.

Students wrote countless messages to family and friends of their choice to let them know "Hey...you MATTER." While the letters themselves were sent to those individuals, students took an extra moment to decorate and hang the name of their chosen person from a schoolwide frame. 

Pictured below is the districtwide result of this process. Included here are frames from each library in the State College Area School District!
