Thanks to a recent remodeling project, the O.M. Tiffany Elementary School library now features lighting that’s repurposed from recycled globes! Nine globes have been transformed into light fixtures that hang from the library’s ceiling. The lights were created by Aberdeen Public Schools Director of Operations Ben Schnell, who said he wanted to do something with this project that would set the room apart from other library spaces. Well done, Mr. Schnell! #AberdeenPublicSchools #GoEagles
