A new report has been added to the Board Packet folder. The file is titled “Wireless Data FY 25”. This report details the daily wireless sessions and the amount of traffic (GB) the library experiences. The report also lists the aggregate data traffic on a monthly basis. The IPLAR requires the annual wireless sessions provided by the library (question 21.6) and grant reports sometimes ask for that info as well.

The Library was invited to promote a fee-based community event.

The Book Club continues with a loyal group of participants.

Brushwood Center Outing at Ft. Sheridan Forest Preserve – 26 participants In partnership with the Brushwood

Center, this program aimed to bring families together outdoors, encouraging them to explore local nature and get active. Brushwood transported 26 participants to the Fort Sheridan Forest Preserve. During the nature walk, Brushwood's presenter,

Eddy, shared engaging facts about the

forest preserve, making the experience both educational and fun. Thanks to Eddy’s expertise, the children were able to spot Monarch Butterfly eggs on a milkweed plant, as well as other fascinating wildlife. Our families had a wonderful time and expressed interest in participating in similar activities in the future.

New Programs in July: Chess and Writing

In July, we successfully launched two new programs for children aged 6-12, in collaboration with local and neighboring community members: Beginners Chess Class and a Writing Workshop. These programs were designed to provide fun and engaging educational opportunities for our young patrons during the summer. The Beginners Chess Class, led by Deerfield High School student Emmett Lin, attracted eager young learners each week. Emmett’s enthusiasm for teaching chess created a supportive learning environment, and at the end of the series, participants were gifted their own chess sets. Parents praised the class and expressed interest in having it offered again in the future. The Writing Workshop encouraged participants to practice their writing skills over the summer and explore journaling. Co-presented by Mrs. Emma Kowalenko, who also volunteers with our citizenship classes and Homework Help & Tutoring program, the workshop provided weekly writing prompts. One memorable assignment involved participants writing the lyrics of their favorite songs and explaining the message behind them in their own words. In addition to these successes, a family visiting from Miami participated in programming and shared that they loved our library, and they deeply appreciated our welcoming staff. This story reflects the positive impact our new programs have had on participants and highlights the strong connections we build with our community.

Teen Services

(Program Updates from Lauren)

Highlight: Cooking Club: Miniature Fruit Pizzas

In response to feedback from teens expressing their interest in food-related programming, we launched a monthly Cooking Club designed to expose Highwood area teens to new foods and foster independence in the kitchen. This month, participants created miniature fruit pizzas. Teens had a blast decorating their "pizzas" and discovered how food can be a creative outlet. They were encouraged to experiment with different flavor combinations, resulting in each teen finding their own unique favorite by the end of the session. The program successfully combined fun, creativity, and learning, making it a standout experience for our teen participants.

Highwood to College trainings:
Two sessions were held to provide information to incoming seniors on the college application process. These two sessions, lead by High School faculty Pablo Alvarez and Amanda Scholz, focused on Navigating the Common Application and on Writing a College Essay. Both instructors generously offered drop-in support to teens in the weeks that followed to answer questions and provide individual support.

Success Story: Alex's Makerspace Experience
- Alex, a member of the Teen Advisory Board, had never participated in a Makerspace program before attending the Open Make session on July 12th. Intrigued by the possibilities, he decided to push the limits of the GlowForge and volunteered to experiment with creating a 3D model, hoping to help the library explore future program ideas. After some trial and error, Alex successfully crafted an intricate wooden vinyl record player. Not only did he leave the session with a unique and impressive project, but he also gained the confidence to operate the GlowForge independently. Reflecting on the experience, Alex shared, “It’s pretty neat that the library has something advanced like this.” It is amazing to see firsthand the impact of our Makerspace program, as it enabled Alex to develop new skills, build confidence, and contribute ideas for future library programming.

Adult Literacy (Updates from Alex,

Aurora, Yuliya)

Highlight: ESL Conversation Corner: A Path to Employment

One of our ESL students approached us for help polishing her academic vocabulary as she prepared to enter the job market. Over the course of the month, our instructor met with her four times, providing targeted support and conducting a mock interview to build her confidence. By the end of the month, the student proudly shared that she had two job interviews and was hired! Grateful for the support she received at the library, she expressed her appreciation, particularly for the dedicated help from her instructor. This success highlights the valuable role our ESL program plays in empowering community members to achieve their personal and professional goals.

Success Story: Supporting a Small Business Dream
A patron looking to start his own small business in Highwood visited the library seeking information on local business zoning maps by type. Our staff provided a walkthrough of the City of Highwood's website, guiding him to the relevant zoning maps and contact details for the Highwood City Council. In addition, we connected the patron with Lake County Workforce Development, whose team was at the library that day. They discussed potential training in his career field for possible new hires, offering valuable guidance for his future small business. This story reflects the library’s role in not only providing essential information but also connecting patrons with broader community resources to support their dreams.

Health Equity –

(Updates provided by Yenny, Viridiana, Monica and Carolina)

Highlight: “Hands for Highwood: Our Time to Heal”

This month, we hosted "Hands for Highwood: Our Time to Heal," in collaboration with PreOla Impressions. The Library partnered with PreOla Impressions to offer victims of the 4th of July shooting an opportunity to reframe the horrific experience they experienced. Acknowledging that while people may feel helpless to stop gun violence, there are creative ways to feel self-empowered and move forward from painful experiences using
our strengths. This program used a strengths- based therapeutic approach to foster an experience of healing, community building and closure for HP Shooting survivors and those impacted by gun violence and trauma.
Participants expressed feeling "grateful, seen, loved, spoiled, included, in
awe, and supported," reflecting the profound impact of the program.

Success Story:
Jasmine*, a 16-year-old high school student, was referred to us by Luisa Lara, Community Engagement Coordinator at HP High School. She and her father Juan had been in the U.S. for about a year, facing significant challenges. Julia's father, an older single parent, had lived in the country for over 40 years but had never applied for critical services like Medicaid or SNAP. He is unable to read or write and, despite working long hours, struggled to provide for their basic needs, including food and healthcare. Upon meeting Jasmine, it became clear that they were dealing with food insecurity and a lack of access to medical care. Our Case Management team stepped in to assist, helping both Jasmine and her father complete applications for Medicaid and SNAP. We also connected them with Moraine Township to address their immediate need for groceries. Juan's Medicaid application has been approved, allowing him access to the medical care he urgently needed. With this support, he is now managing his high blood pressure, a condition that previously required hospitalization. This improvement has provided Jasmine and Juan with a newfound sense of security, lifting a tremendous burden from their shoulders. They no longer have to worry about how to manage or pay for medical care if they fall ill. Jasmine's story highlights the impact of our services in addressing critical needs and providing support to families navigating complex systems.

Mistake in patron cards statistics for June: The stats for the number of unexpired library cards had two mistakes for June 2024. In the June 2024 report, it listed the number of unexpired Highwood Library cards as 841, but the correct number is 1127. The report also listed the number of unexpired reciprocal cards as 285, but

the correct number is 408.

The Friends of the Highwood Public Library

Friends of the Library planned the logistics for a mailing of the FY24 Annual Report to stakeholders and planned the August 7th Wednesday Market table. The Friends also is working on how to support the library through amplifying the message about open positions and volunteer opportunities. The Friends’ treasurer has begun to
