30 Years Later


I am so excited to be back in middle school!  As a teacher of course.  Not a student, you could not offer me anything that would make me return to those three years of my life.  I was a Jefferson Jet 30 years ago, a nervous 11 year old trying to navigate a big school and make new friends. One of my first best friends had a mom who was a librarian.  It was through her that I fell in love with Judy Blume, I read all of her books I could get my hands on.  I still remember passages and descriptions that meant something to me then.   Now, here I am all these years later hoping to be able to get THAT book into the hands of these Jefferson Jets.  This time of life which is fraught with  moods and hormones, questions and trouble lends itself so well to my desire to help make information easier to access and understand in the library.  So glad to be here.
