So exciting that I am a part of the Orange Blossom List Committee for @FloridaSSYRA . We presented the list, as well as ideas for lessons with these amazing nonfiction books at @FloridaMediaEd Bonus: I met @SueFliess and Sarah Albee!

Excited about presenting at FAME on Friday!

These are my amazing colleagues who are supported by the BEST team ever, the ITLM Team! Thank you and congratulations for all you do! Happy National Librarian Day! @CDLocps

This past week, we extended a warm welcome to our bus drivers with coffee and donuts, expressing our gratitude for their hard work.

This last week was busy! MC job, device check in, celebrating readers with Italian Ice, and receiving my 20 year pin with OCPS were just some of the highlights. What a blessed professional life I have led. Now, to enjoy the summer! #GodisGood #180Daysinthelifeofamediaspecialist
