Clayborn Benson III Storytelling Session
Please indicate if you are interested in attending the Friday, February 28th Clayborn Benson storytelling event. Clayborn Benson III is a historian, an expert and a STORY-TELLER in Milwaukee, on African American history, culture and experiences in Wisconsin.
The event will be held from 9:00 - 10:00am in room 123/124, this Friday morning (February 28th). If you are interested in attending this very limited event, please complete this survey by the end of FLEX, on Thursday.
With only one session of Mr. Benson being available, we need to keep the number of students to 65 total students (we wish we could have everyone attend, but we'll be bringing him back!). We will randomly draw 65 students from all students who complete the survey. Those students will be asked to attend the event, later this week. Attendees will be announced on Thursday at the end of CONNECT.
Please see Mr. Murray or Mr. Heuser with any questions and in the meanwhile, check out this introductory video on Mr. Benson's work at the Wisconsin Black Historical Society & Museum:

CLICK ON IMAGE TO CHECK OUT OUR BOOK SELECTION & OFFERINGS AT STEM
Throughout the year, several families have inquired about how library books are selected for our students at STEM. Without getting too granular, our team of Library Media Specialists annually review hundreds, if not thousands of texts, titles, and genres each year through professional resources including School Library Journal, Booklist, and Cooperative Children's Book Center (CCBC). Out of these, age-appropriate texts are selected and purchased for each school and utilized and read throughout the year (and beyond). At STEM - Saratoga, for example, there are texts such as the Young Authors collection, which are geared for students who are "Young Authors" and in their middle school years. As they get older, the text selection and offerings will differ slightly, as they mature and ready themselves for more mature content and more difficult, rigorous reading selections.
Part of working with our families on keeping everyone in the loop, is to make available the texts that are present for our students, so we have placed a link to our SDW "Card Catalog" on our STEM - Saratoga website, which is called Destiny Discover and is online. This is a web-portal for our students to search for a book based on title, author, genre, etc. and we wanted our parents to be able to see the texts that their students are able to check-out. If at any time, there is a text or a subject matter that you feel is not appropriate for your student(s), please do not hesitate to reach out and let us know, so that we may have a conversation and come up with a solution that works out in the best interest of the student, but also falls under the wishes of the parent(s). Many of these texts may serve as a great learning opportunity for our students [and parents], so we want to make sure that parents are aware of what their student is reading both in and out of school.
Please check out the LINK to the online resources and as always, please reach out with any inquiries.
Thanks so much!
