OXFORD HANDBOOKS ONLINE FREE TRIAL THROUGH APRIL 22

Ms. DeGroat, the librarian,  is currently evaluating Oxford Handbooks Online to see if it might fill a research gap in the library’s online toolbox. Subject handbooks provide scholarly overviews about topics that can often serve as a bridge between reading articles from encyclopedias, newspapers, and magazines about a topic and understanding scholarly studies in that discipline.

MLWGS students and teachers can access Oxford Handbooks Online through April 22.

Although this free trial includes all subjects, a school subscription would be for a specific subject or subjects, so if you give this a test run, it would be VERY helpful if you could jot down the title of specific handbooks that prove useful. You may submit feedback about this resource http://bit.ly/tryhandbooks.

Our school login during the free trial is user name: mwdragons and password: TryOUP19. 






MW BOYS SWIMMERS WIN MULTIPLE STATE TITLES













Henry Paulson (Richmond '20) and Noah Ratliff (Richmond '20) won multiple championship titles in the State Championship swim meet. Paulson finished first place in 100 breast and Ratliff finished first place in 100 fly. They are the only MW swimmers (boys and girls) to accomplish this. The duo also won the 400 free relay along with teammates Lorenzo Galang (Chesterfield '22) and Bryce Mortimer (Richmond '22). Congratulations!
