Thank you Misters McLaughlin and Mr. Kobielusz

Last week we kicked off Out Loud in the Library with poetry recitations by Mr. McLaughlin. They were all great, but the Irish accent he added to the last poem made it the favorite!

Yesterday Mr. Kobielusz read from Monster: Autobiography of an LA Gang Member to a crowd of over 50 students! The reading was electric and Mr. Kobielusz's own experiences working in juvenile detention centers made an already too real story an even more authentic experience.

Thank you to our guest readers and audience! Our next event will be after winter break, so keep posted for updates. Don't miss out on that extra credit just for attending!

Out Loud In The Library--11/29

Please join us during lunch on Thursday, Nov. 29th, for a poetry reading by Mr. McLaughlin. Feel free to bring your lunch, but the doors close when the reading begins--10 minutes into lunch. You will be given an attendance verification to give to a teacher for extra credit (teacher's choice).
