We have new nonfiction books about the 50 states, regions, holidays, sports, animals, American symbols, and biographies. We also got some new books for our folktales section which include fairy tales, tall tales, mythology, and more! All the books purchased will enhance learning in both the library and in the classrooms. We are so excited to share them with our students and teachers!

Henry and Mrs Beye spent the day in Topeka at the CTSO Citizenship Day. Kansas CTSO Citizenship Day is an annual event where student leaders from Career & Technical Student Organizations travel to Topeka to meet with the Kansas State Board of Education and legislators, advocating for Career & Technical Education (CTE) and sharing their organization's impact on student futures.

Students from the Herington HS chapter of YLinK (Youth Leaders in KS), purchased supplies for students to make "anti-gloom" bags. These items were self care, relaxation, and stress reduction focused. Students were given a bag to pick item such as flavored lip balm, gum, journals, coloring books, colored pencils, fidget spinners, stress balls, hot chocolate, under eye masks, and soft fluffy socks! The YLinK members enjoyed being able to help the student body start the semester on a positive note!
