Professional Development books over summer holidays

Want some reading material for when you are lying on a beach this summer, sipping a piña colada? Looking for an excuse to get away from the in-laws asking when you’re going to move back home and/or have a(nother) kid? I have the answer for both!

Feel free to check out professional development books from the library over the summer, but don’t wait until the end of school to get them! We will begin packing up the library on June 1, and while the professional development books will be packed last, they will be boxed up by June 9.

The early bird gets the worm!
