New Firefly Forest mural at Seward school library 

New Firefly Forest mural at Seward school library 

During the 2024-25 school year, Seward Montessori created the Library Squad, initiated by Library Media Specialist Dhaivyd Hilgendorf.

During its first year, students in grades 3-6 completed the following activities:

  • named the group Library Squad
  • ordered books for the library collection
  • volunteered to check out books for their classes and other students
  • created posters, decorations and buttons
  • ran a successful book club
  • created an LGBTQ section of the library
  • helped with book processing, genrefication and reshelving books

The students named the library media center “Firefly Forest” and created a mural to match the name. Kudos to a productive and successful first year, Library Squad!
