Welcome!

Hi!
Welcome to my blog!
I am the media specialist at Heard County Middle School in Franklin, Georgia. Our students are in grades 6-8. I've been media specialist here since our school opened in 2002. Our media center received the Exceptional Media Center Award (Georgia Department of Education) in 2009 and, this year, I was awarded the AASL Pathfinder Award. I became a media specialist in 1993 and served two schools: Ephesus Elementary School (K-8) and Centralhatchee Elementary School (K-8). I worked at one school each morning and at the other each afternoon. Later, increased enrollment at Centralhatchee allowed me to serve that school full time before our county created the middle school.
I have my National Board Certification in Library Media/Early Childhood Through Young Adulthood (issued November 18, 2005). I have a bachelor's degree in Middle Grades Education. I have a Master's degree in Media and an Ed.S. (Educational Specialist) degree in Media and Instructional Technology, earned through at the University of West Georgia. The first degree program I completed (at WGC) was in Speech and Theater Art /Journalism (minor in Business Administration). I was editor of The Bowdon Bulletin for 10 years and also worked as reporter for two bi-weekly newspapers that later became the Daily Times-Georgian. I have freelanced articles and have had several published in the North Georgia Journal.
My husband (Richard) and I have two children: Sabrina (Thompson) and Cullie. Sabrina is a media specialist at Temple High School in Carroll County. Cullie works for Reeve's Supply Company. We have a farm that includes cows, chickens, guineas, turkeys, goats, cats and livestock guardian dogs (Great Pyrenees).
