Celebrate your Freedom to READ



The library is celebrating Banned Books Week this week and next week. The annual celebration is sponsored by the American Library Association.

"Banned Books Week (BBW) is an annual event celebrating the freedom to read and the importance of the First Amendment. Held during the last week of September, Banned Books Week highlights the benefits of free and open access to information while drawing attention to the harms of censorship by spotlighting actual or attempted bannings of books across the United States."  Read more about it.

Author Simone Elkeles to Visit CCHS Library Oct 3rd!!!

The author of the Perfect Chemistry trilogy will be visiting CCHS library during all three lunches on October 3rd. Her books will be available for sale. A select number of invitations to the event will be given to each English teacher to give to interested students. Students may bring their lunch to eat in the library while Ms. Elkeles talks to the students about her books. The library has not had an author for several years, so we are all very excited about her visit!
