Mill Creek Academy is seeking School Advisory Committee participants for the 2023-24 school year. Interested parents may submit their name and email address. We appreciate your participation and look forward to a great school year. Our first meeting is scheduled for Tuesday September 26^th at 4:00PM. Thank you.

New Florida Law and State Board of Education Rule state that starting July 1, 2023, all books available to students must be reviewed by a certified media specialist. As a result, SJCSD staff is investing time and resources to support the robust classroom libraries that our teachers have built. Our first step in the process is to sort the classroom libraries into two groups, those that are listed in Destiny and those that are not. Destiny is the program we use to inventory and track circulation of library materials. Titles listed in Destiny have already been reviewed and approved by a certified media specialist. Therefore, the books in Destiny will remain in the classroom. Books that are not in Destiny must be stored until they are approved. Approving titles for a school collection is a process guided by SJCSD School Board Rule 4.131 School Library Media Services linked here: https://www.stjohns.k12.fl.us/board/wp-content/uploads/sites/11/2022/09/4-131.pdf. The effort to add titles will be ongoing.

Your copy should address 3 key questions: Who am I writing for? (Audience) Why should they care? (Benefit) What do I want them to do here? (Call-to-Action)

Create a great offer by adding words like "free" "personalized" "complimentary" or "customized." A sense of urgency often helps readers take an action, so think about inserting phrases like "for a limited time only" or "only 7 remaining!"
