We asked teachers & staff to share thoughts about the MC. After reading through the responses, we're thrilled with the positives & ready to make some changes to meet staff needs even better! @hickoryridgemid @cabcoschools @NCSLMA

Got a call this morning that some friends had finished their work early and were asking to help out in the MC. Eleven kids spent twenty minutes organizing the books and fixing seating. All volunteers, all happy to help. That’s #TheMaverickKind. 💙🐮💙 @hickoryridgemid

Multi-step equations got infused with a whole lot of fun today! Platt’s classes reviewed inverse operations and balancing equations while breaking out of some seriously tough puzzles. @hickoryridgemid

Our Mavericks Mic’d Up poetry slam was incredible! We were deeply impressed by students’ transparency and skill sharing their own works & favorites by other authors. 🤩 We finally feel comfortable calling it “first annual” now. 😅 Thanks to everyone who came! @hickoryridgemid

Photo drop from the past few weeks because sometimes we take pictures and forget to do something with them 😬 @hickoryridgemid

April was fantastic! (And not just because we 💙 spring break.) We celebrated National Poetry Month and School Library Month; we hosted our first-ever amazing poetry slam; we watched elementary BOB teams battle; and we partnered with teachers on great lessons! @hickoryridgemid

So many good things happened in the month of March! We didn't have space to mention all the club meetings and special events that met in the MC, and our checkout numbers were the 2nd-highest this year. 💪 Let's start getting those books turned in before the rush to summer begins!

It's National School Librarian Day! Take a moment to thank a librarian - they work hard to make sure you have access to great books, interesting information, and a welcoming environment. We 💙 our librarian here in the MC. Thanks for all you do, Ms. Warr!!

We're almost tied with last year's checkouts as of today! February was a slower month for us - lots of nonfiction projects and character trial prep. Still, we are excited that students are checking out LOTS of books and coming in to explore the MC! @hickoryridgemid

Look what these historians created in their I/E block! It’s on display in the MC so you can see what each Ancient Greek city-state (or “polis”) was known for. @hickoryridgemid

January was a BIG month for us!! Check out our statistics! We did a lot of work with ELA classes last month (which was exciting), but it's time for us to spread the love. Tell your other teachers you want to come work with us, too! @hickoryridgemid

In the MC Friday… 6,942 people: Uh, why are the chairs in a huge circle? Us: Ms. Cashwell & Ms. Lopez are taking their readers on a road trip! Partners discussed how a text’s features & structures contributed to its message. New round, new text, new partner! @hickoryridgemid

Today we had new friends reading about 🦖dinosaurs🦕 together, and we had a LOT of puzzlers 🧩 from the busy morning to I/E at the end. Have a safe 3-day weekend, Mavericks! Go outside, get some rest, spread some joy, and represent #TheMaverickKind to everyone you meet. 💙🐮💙

Compared our checkout stats to last year knowing we now have 200 fewer students...and that would DEFINITELY make our checkouts drop. - BUT GUESS WHAT - Checkouts are at almost the same levels they were in January 2022! You Mavericks are AMAZING!! @hickoryridgemid

When you get out a checkerboard one morning, be prepared to get out a checkerboard all the other mornings. 😆 Or be like us and show them where to get it themselves! Want to join in? Come see us when you get here in the mornings, and you can play until 8:55!

Missing us? We miss you, too! Here’s a 48-hour throwback to the last day before break. Stay warm and friendly, Mavericks! @hickoryridgemid
