Baraboo Book Bonanza: Free Reads for the Community!
Did you know that the Baraboo High School Library Media Center regularly updates its collection? To keep our shelves fresh and relevant, we "weed" older or duplicate books—making room for new titles while giving great reads a second life. Until now, these books have been available to students first and during special school events, but we’re excited to expand access to the entire community!
Starting after school this Wednesday, and every Wednesday in March, the Baraboo High School Commons will open its doors after school (from 1:15 to 3:45 pm) for anyone in the community to browse and take home books—for FREE! Whether you're looking for fiction, non-fiction, young adult novels, graphic novels, or classic literature, you never know what treasures you might find.
Stop by, stock up, and help give these books a new home! Happy reading, Baraboo!
Baraboo Book Bonanza: Lecturas Gratuitas para la Comunidad
¿Sabía que el Centro de Medios de la Biblioteca de Baraboo High School actualiza regularmente su colección? Para mantener nuestros estantes frescos y relevantes, «descartamos» los libros más antiguos o duplicados, haciendo espacio para nuevos títulos y dando una segunda vida a las grandes lecturas. Hasta ahora, estos libros han estado disponibles para los estudiantes en primer lugar y durante eventos escolares especiales, ¡pero estamos encantados de ampliar el acceso a toda la comunidad.
A partir de este miércoles, y todos los miércoles de marzo, el Baraboo High School Commons abrirá sus puertas después de la escuela para que cualquier persona de la comunidad pueda hojear y llevarse libros a casa, ¡GRATIS! Ya sea que esté buscando ficción, no ficción, novelas para jóvenes adultos, novelas gráficas o literatura clásica, nunca se sabe qué tesoros puede encontrar.
¡Pase por aquí, aprovéchese y ayude a darles un nuevo hogar a estos libros! ¡Feliz lectura, Baraboo!
The School Board is asking for your help in their search for the next Superintendent of Schools for The School District of Baraboo.
Please follow the link below to give your input on what characteristics a great Superintendent should have: Survey Closes March 5th.
https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/SQS6T3T
While the decision of whom to hire is up to the School Board, that decision impacts students, parents, teachers, administrators, staff and the Baraboo community. Hence, it is important that all stakeholders be given the opportunity to weigh in on what characteristics they believe a great Superintendent should have. The School Board will then use your input and that of others to develop a leadership profile that will guide the School Board in the interview and selection process.
