A group of school librarians recently attended the NCSLMA (NC School Library Media Association) conference in Greensboro, NC, where they gained fresh insights into innovative teaching strategies and the latest resources for enhancing student literacy. School libraries play a crucial role in education by providing access to diverse learning materials, fostering a love for reading, and supporting critical thinking skills. Equipped with new approaches and resources, these librarians are now better prepared to enrich student's learning experiences, ultimately strengthening literacy and engagement across our schools and community. 📚✨ #NCPS #NCPSchools
