National Library Week
This week is National Library Week and we could not have been more surprised and touched by the recognition of our work from the English Dept. Cookies and Cards were dropped off with a huge round of thanks for what we do. THANK YOU ENGLISH DEPT...it is our pleasure to teach and work with such a great department!
Cards for Connor
I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone at Natick High School who took the time during our Community Seminar to participate in the "Cards For Connor" I can't tell you how touched Connor and his family (Officer Heffler, Mr. Heffler and brothers Ryan and Evin) were by the outpouring of support from the students and staff. Connor woke up Tuesday March 17th unable to move his legs. He was rushed to Mass General where they removed a massive tumor from his spine. Connor is currently at Spaulding Rehab in Charlestown where he is working really hard to get back the use of his legs. He is fighting hard and ready to kick Cancer's butt!!!
Blog Book of the Week
Nearly Gone / Elle Cosimano
"Nearly Gone" by Elle Cosimano is a dark, edgy, realistic, fast-paced
murder mystery set in a high school. In the words of some goodreads
readers, it's "a gritty homage to Nancy Drew with more blood, fewer
sweater sets and no penny loafers". This book definately keeps you on
the edge of your seat. Nearly needs to solve a murder mystery and at
the same time is trying to lead a normal high school life thinking about
school, scholarships, boys and the prom. She gets caught up in a
murder mystery and tries to solve it on her own. At every turn, you
think it's one person, then you read the next page and your theory is
disputed. This book kept me guessing until the last page!
Summary: "A math-whiz from a trailer park discovers she's the only student
capable of unravelling complex clues left by a serial killer who's
systematically getting rid of her classmates.
