Library Media Specialist
It is a privilege to work with the children at Cherokee Elementary. I am from Cherokee, and I attended Colbert County Schools. My husband and I live in Florence with our two boys, and we enjoy spending family time together.
The library is an integral part of the school and your child's education. Reading is the foundation for all other learning. I hope to help you encourage your child to love reading and become a lifelong learner. The library is the information hub, which is so important in an ever-changing society where children need to know how to access and use information. Let's work together to encourage your child.
