Tranformations is Happening!

                Transformation is Happening!  By Abby Summers

               Wow, is all I can say about the learning Commons transformation. Last year when school started it was a drab, grey room filled with thousands of books and it was called a library. Now when you walk in through the blue curtained doors you can’t help but smile. I am very impressed with the changes that have been made such as the painted skylights, rearrangements of book shelves, and the always moving arrangement of new loungers. 

                The learning commons is still full of books that lots of people enjoy, and I feel like they are beginning to be enjoyed more by students as the Learning Commons becomes a “cool” reading hangout. I know for a fact that a year ago people wouldn’t have paid 15 or 20 tiger paws to come and just read. But with the cool, new relaxed vibe the walls now make, it is more inviting to everyone. It is a whole new environment that this school could thrive on.  And I don’t know yet if the school itself is ready to make that exciting change, I just know that I would be right there helping them with it.

                On that note this transformation was a very good thing for the school. And I think the title Learning Commons fits very nicely with the schools new switch to technology.  And with all the new iPads going around who doesn’t want a comfy relaxed place to just sit down and get some home work done.
