If you've been to the Valley View library lately, you've noticed some improvements in both function and appearance. These changes come to us courtesy of one of our very own Cardinals. Now a Senior at Westlake High School, Laurie Prinz chose the Valley View library as the recipient of her many talents as she worked to earn the Girl Scout Gold Award, which is the equivalent of Boy Scouts' prestigious Eagle Award. Laurie drew on her artistic, literary, and engineering talents to design and construct a large number of signs to direct students to the books they want. With labeled areas, as well as shelves, students have already demonstrated an improvement in the ability to locate books that they want. Laurie thoughtfully included pictures in the non-fiction section labels, so that our pre-reading population can take advantage of her work. In addition to decorative and functional additions to the library, Laurie created an orientation video which reminded students of library procedures and etiquette as we started the school year. Thank you Laurie! Your legacy will be appreciated by Cardinals for years to come!
