CT's KnowHow2Go program prepares students and their families for higher ed

Connecticut has joined 14 other states to encourage and prepare students, especially first-generation students, to actively pursue post-secondary opportunities. Connecticut’s campaign is called “KnowHow2GOConnecticut.” The campaign targets students in Grades 8-10 and their families, employing TV, radio, print and a student-friendly website.

KnowHow2GOConnecticut encourages students in middle and high school to follow four simple steps that will help them plan and prepare for college and careers after high school. It is not enough just to dream of a college and a career there are steps that need to be followed. There needs to be a plan and this campaign assists students and their families develop that plan.

AASL Survey...LMS should respond by March 15th

The second year of AASL's longitudinal survey, "School Libraries Count!" is rapidly coming to a close. Participation is encouraged from everyone: public schools, private schools, school library media specialists, and library support staff. Participation from those who completed the survey last year is equally valuable this year.
This year's survey also poses an additional question about social networking and other electronic tools used in instruction by school library media specialists and their classroom teacher collaborators.
The purpose of the survey is to provide longitudinal data for advocacy at the local, state, and national level.
Please join in this advocacy effort by completing the survey by March 15. Questions regarding the survey may be directed to aasl@ala.org
