Here at Baucom Elementary, in the wake of quarantines, online learning, and protocols keeping us at a distance, we are choosing to focus on the relationships we have with our families and our community. This work has always been a priority, but it is something we are making a conscious effort to grow.
A strong school library program develops partnerships with the community (families, caregivers, businesses, non-profit organizations, local government, experts in fields related to curriculum topics, etc.). These partnerships exist to support student learning, mentorship, community engagement, and library advocacy.
