Learning Commons

A learning commons is a place for a student to come to for an opportunity to experience more of what they need to expand their knowledge. It’s a chance to get ahead and reach for their goals. I am honored to be a part of creating this vision. Even though I may not be able to experience it myself, I know that the students after me will appreciate it greatly.

            I enjoy being a part of this because I get to learn how working together is a great and helpful experience. I want students to be able to learn without being distracted. They need a place to come to, a quiet place, to catch up on work, or read, or research something for a class. Also, the ambience is calm and inviting for the students.

            I believe that this will be a positive improvement. I hope we can change the views students have on our school. Let’s make it a better place for all of us, we belong here. So we should make the most of it, and create something new. There are many things students can achieve in a learning commons, and it’s our goal to get them there.
