Learning Express Library improves the skills required for academic and career success. There are practice sets and tutorials to develop skills in math, reading, writing, and basic sciences. Users must create a login on a school computer, but the login can then be used on any computer. The link can also be found on the high school library website.

Red Queen
This is a world divided by blood – red or silver. The Reds are commoners, ruled by a Silver elite in possession of god-like superpowers. And to Mare Barrow, a seventeen-year-old Red girl from the poverty-stricken Stilts, it seems like nothing will ever change.
What Light
Sierra's family runs a Christmas tree farm in Oregon—it's a bucolic setting for a girl to grow up in, except that every year, they pack up and move to California to set up their Christmas tree lot for the season. So Sierra lives two lives: her life in Oregon and her life at Christmas. And leaving one always means missing the other.
The Winner's Curse
An aristocratic girl who is a member of a warmongering and enslaving empire purchases a slave, an act that sets in motion a rebellion that might overthrow her world as well as her heart.
Professional Resources
A snipping tool allows you to take a screen shot of your whole screen or just a portion of it and save it as a jpg file. In Windows, go to the "Search programs and files" then type snipping tool. Click on it to use the tool.
Come and see me in the library if you have any questions!
Also, a big thank you to Amy Hertzberg for her amazing Tech Tidbits that helped me create this tech tips section on this newsletter.
