Travis, as a secondary librarian in a fast-growing small community school district in Iowa, your blog caught my eye. My name is Gail Hackett and I am teaching blogging to 6th graders. Your blog has a great video for a great start. What a fun way to promote the concept of a record-breaking year! In the era of data gathering concentrating on world records is a great connection to make with students and adults. Thank so much. I am anxious to share this with students.
A question: What data do you think is most vital to collect and crow about with administration?
Thank you, Gail
