Teen Read Week @ Lawrence High School Library

During Teen Read Week, YALSA, American Library Association and the LHS Library reminded teens, parents and educators of the importance of reading for pleasure. Reading not only improves grades; it leads to a lifetime of learning and enjoyment.

Each year, Lawrence High School Library observes Teen Read Week by displaying "Read to Succeed" Posters in the library hallway. Check out our 2001-02 Teen Read Week Slide Show.
