<div dir="ltr">We read from the Read for a Lifetime list through the Illinois Center for the Book. The list is great, there's a lot of overlap between that and the Lincoln list, and the kids get recognized by the Secretary of State at the end of the year. Plus they can add it as an accomplishment on their college apps. It's a natural selling point. :)<div> </div><div>This is our third year doing it this way, and it has grown each year. We're a district with three high schools, and over the covid closures, our book clubs met as one group over zoom, which was pretty cool. We try to stay aligned. I'm proud of our book clubs. </div><div><br></div><div>Hope that helps!</div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Thu, Nov 18, 2021 at 10:11 AM Michelle Shippy via AISLE <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">I am attempting to start a book club at the high school level. This is my first year in this particular district, so I don't currently have a go-to group of students I can tap into getting this off the ground; I'm hoping this club will help me foster some strong relationships. For those of you who have spear-headed and lead a teen book club, please drop all of your advice in this thread. My plan is to recruit, promote, and choose our first title before the end of this semester and hold our first meeting in late January.
