Shepard IB Middle awarded Federal Grant to boost student achievement with more books
The State Library of North Carolina, a division of the Department of Cultural Resources, has awarded Shepard a grant to help strengthen its library's book collection. The $10,000 School Library Collection Development Grant was one of 114 awarded this year to public libraries statewide with federal Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) funds.
This school libary collection grant helps us build a strong book collection to support the school's curriculum," said Felicia Leggett, the media coordinator at Shepard. We struggle to maintain a collection that is current and meets student needs, but this will help------our average book collection is 16 years old," she added, noting that the grant will be used to replace outdated books as well as to add new books to the library's collection. |
