LEARNING COMMONS
GRAPHIC NOVEL Welcome to the Year of the Graphic Novel! Our NBPS Libraries share this theme as we celebrate the literary value of the graphic medium. From Sunshine State nominated titles lists to Nord Anglia's Global Read, graphic novels have officially arrived on the scene! Our overarching celebration brings award- winning graphic novelists to our NBPS campus to interact with students. It also showcases NBPS faculty and their talents in this mediumas they work with students to further develop interests and abilities. Let's learn together and validate what kids have known all along: Graphic novels not only increase visual literacy and reading skills, but also are somuch fun to read! We invite all parents to join us for Parent Education sessions. Please watch the Eagle Update for additional details.
