In a time when discussions about education are often dominated by
standards, high-stakes testing, and budget cuts, our students and
teachers need a champion! Join John Schumacher (aka Mr. Schu) as he
explores the value of school librarians as champions of change. Partici-
pants in this workshop should roll up their sleeves and get ready to dig
into the role of librarians as champions of independent reading, connec-
tors of the school family, and advocates for all students. Mr. Schu brings
a fresh and vibrant voice to our mission to help students become
engaged independent readers.
