WELCOME TEACHERS!

NHS Media Center is dedicated to supporting the staff and students of NHS. As a licensed teacher/librarian, Mrs. Longgood helps teachers create lesson plans, co-teaches with classroom teachers, and purchases items to supplement the curriculum of all courses offered at Northwestern. Please see the items below to discover what we have to offer. If you do not see what you need, please contact Mrs. Longgood, and we'll see what we can do to make it happen!

Best Digital Tools for Teaching & Learning

The American Association of School Librarians (AASL) has released its annual list of Best Digital Tools for Teaching & Learning. The recognition honors electronic resources that provide enhanced learning and curriculum development for school librarians and their educator collaborators.
