To celebrate National Poetry Month this April, Hassenfeld librarians are using K-12 voices to showcase a wide range of poetry. Just outside the library doors, you will find a bulletin board covered in poems submitted by K-12 students, faculty, and staff. These poems are written onto paper leaves that come together to create our “poet-tree.” The leaves altogether showcase multiple languages, styles, and writers (some are even originals from our USN community). Stop by to appreciate everyone’s writing and celebrate the art of poetry!
Students in First Grade Teacher Kim Rosing’s class have spent the last few weeks writing creative stories and working with High Schoolers on binding their books, culminating in a trip to Parnassus Books to see their work on display.
