Boynton Middle School Library Media Center

l

Library Media Specialist

Welcome!

I am the Library Media Specialist for Boynton Middle School and Highbridge Hill Elementary School.  Often called school librarian, but more specifically I am a library teacher specializing in information seeking skills, collaborating with classroom teachers, fostering a love of reading among students, implementing curricula, promoting responsible copyright and creative licenses use, and preserving freedom of information and technology.

In the Fall of 2014, I joined the Mascenic district. My prior experience in library science is diverse! Previously, I worked at Crotched Mountain School.  I also have experience working at university libraries and public libraries.  I earned a BA in English from Rivier College and a Masters in Education with a Library Media Specialist and Education Technology Integrator certifications from Plymouth State University. 

When not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my husband, three daughters and extended family.
