Mrs. Myer took 8th grade history students to the Oglesby Public Library during their class today. Library Director Jeanne Struna helped the students find sources related to their topics for History Fair. Students checked out books and browsed local history primary sources. They recorded the sources and used their phones to take a photo of sources that could not leave the library.
Thanks so much to Jeanne and the library staff for their help with our students!
Mark your calendars for school picture days!
