The author visit from Ms. Rita Williams-Garcia was really spectacular. The author was very impressed by the number and the quality of questions asked by our students. (Thank you to all of the teachers who prepared their students for this visit and had them come ready with questions!) She loved the library media center and the welcoming atmosphere of our school. However, she was most impressed with our students and their ability to think creatively and ask thought-provoking questions. This event would not have been possible without the following people:
Mrs. T. Hall - She did much of the planning for the visit and prepared her students for the sessions and the focus group.
Ms. Rita Woods - She is Mrs. T. Hall's professor. She and her sorority donated books to students and made the visit possible by requesting it on our behalf.
Ms. Abdullah - She helped with planning and funding the event catering and thank you gifts. And, she helped with scheduling the classes, along with Ms. Luke.
Next year, we hope to bring back Ms. Williams-Garcia as well as other authors to share with our students about writing, publishing and thinking creatively.
