Want to make your voice heard and help shape what happens at your library? The Stratford Branch Library is looking for motivated teens to join the Teen Advisory Committee (TAC)—a team of young leaders who help connect local youth with the library and the wider community.
As a TAC member, you won’t just attend meetings—you’ll help plan programs, influence decisions, and create a better space for teens through service, advocacy, and leadership.
Looking to chat with other homeschoolers and swap tricks and tips? Join us each month for Homeschool Hangout! Students will engage with crafts, activities, and games, while caregivers have the opportunity to network.
This month, kids in grades K-6th will participate in a hands-on, healthy drinks workshop. After a reading from The Secret of Sugarland, kids will then be guided through creating their own delicious drink along with a friendly introduction to sugar and sugary foods with simplified, easy-to-understand, facts.
