Congratulations to Debbie Floyd and Stephanie Stargardt! These two graduates of the school librarianship program won the VAASL School Library Program of the Year Award in 2015, and they have gone on to win national accolades. They were selected as winners of the AASL 2016 Collaborative School Library Award for“Brotherhood, a Novel:  Making Connections to Richmond (Virginia) from Reconstruction through Present Day,” which is a collaborative lesson that was designed using the Guided Inquiry model to produce a Project-Based Learning experience that offered students an authentic learning experience.  Check out Mrs. Stargardt’s article today.  She explains that the biggest winners are their students.
