Chris Harris’s author visit to Garvanza Elementary Technology and Leadership Magnet, where students delved into the world of creative (and relentlessly silly!) writing through his poetry collection “My Head Has a Bellyache.” Thank you, Mr. Harris, for yet another unforgettable author visit! 💯

Had an absolute blast at Burbank Blvd. Elementary’s refurbishment earlier this month. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts to the hardworking volunteers who joined us today, the Sandpiper Juniors, and to the Glendale Sustainability Commission for organizing the book drive for classrooms’ and students’ home libraries. Happy, happy reading, Burbank Bees! 📚🐝

Cassandra Federman’s two author visits with us this semester! In April, Columbus Ave. Elementary got to explore the power of storytelling, intertwined with a compelling sibling rivalry, through her graphic novel “Story Spinners.” And, earlier this month, Dixie Canyon Ave Elementary enjoyed her picture book, “Gray Squirrel Loses It!,” chock-full of nature facts and humor. Thank you, Ms. Federman, for a couple of super creative, story-filled days 🥰

Jorge Cham’s April author visit at Harrison St. Elementary, where, for the day, students got to ponder the vastness of the universe and middle-school shenanigans alike. Also featured is the school principal’s thank-you letter to Dr. Cham, which showcases students’ eagerness to learn when information is presented in engaging and relevant ways—and, of course, when they are introduced to the knowledgeable people who skillfully relay that information! Thank you so much to Harrison St. Elementary for hosting and to Dr. Cham for inspiring scientific wonder across the school 🌌✨
