HOLTVILLE MIDDLE SCHOOL

Every Student Empowered, Every Student Succeeds

Library

Welcome

In collaboration with the school’s learning community, the Holtville Middle School library media program will be the center of teaching and learning by providing access to quality collections and technologies, and by extending services beyond the library media center’s four walls and the school day.

The purpose of the Holtville Middle School Library Media Center is to enable students to become independent, lifelong learners in a rapidly changing technological society. To accomplish this mission, the library media specialist, in conjunction with the classroom teachers, works to instruct students in locating, selecting, evaluating, interpreting, organizing, and communicating the information relevant to Elmore County’s educational curriculum goals.

Bio

I began my teaching career in 2000 when I graduated from the University of Montevallo and moved to the big city in Georgia, where I taught Life Science for 5 years. I missed my family and friends, so I came back to Alabama and have been in the Elmore County School system since 2006.  In 2021, I began the next phase of my educational career by transitioning from the classroom to the Library. I am so excited to be in this amazing new role!

I am originally from Louisiana, but I have moved around a good bit as a child/teenager. Actually, I have now lived in Alabama for more years than anywhere else, so I guess I might be a real Alabamian now!!!
