A major change in the library is the addition of Mrs. Carolyn Wigglesworth to our staff as a library aide. We are very excited to have her helping out and working with students. Learn more about Mrs. Wigglesworth.

We are also very excited to have the new Broadcasting Lab up and running. The lab is located off the library and will house the Broadcasting I and II classes which Mr. Lewis will be helping to teach. Stay tuned for their weekly televised news show and other cool projects!
