It’s Time to Hire Librarians at Christina School District

Many of the secondary schools in the Christina School District in Wilmington, DE. intend to continue to operate without librarians. 

Despite the passing of a recent referendum that will enable the district to employ more teachers and reduce the average class size, the district will continue to open many of its doors this August to students without offering them access to a dedicated school librarian that can help them decipher resources and remain engaged and enthusiastic about the power of reading.

Please sign the petition to the school board and superintendent of the Christina District to let them know how important school librarians are to student achievement, and to ask them to keep them where they belong: in their school libraries.
