The month of April is School Library Month! ESD libraries are more than a place to check out books! School libraries and their Library and Media educators create a welcoming environment for students to grow, learn, connect, and feel empowered. Please help show appreciation for the school librarians/media specialists and paraeducators across the district this, and every month.
