<h2>MY CAREER:</h2> <p>I taught sixth grade for the first 4 years of my career, followed by another 6 years as an elementary teacher-librarian. I switched to the high school level and am currently in my 8th year as the teacher-librarian at McLain Community HS. It's an alternative high school with 650+ at-risk students. When I first arrived we did an extreme library makeover and made the library a great place to visit. We encourage food and drinks, have a library cafe, 4 huge Luv Sacs, offer free monthly pancakes, and do a ton of other fun things. We also have a "No Shushing" policy :-)</p> <h2 style="font-size: 1.5em;">MY WEBSITE -&nbsp;<a href="http://www.GettingBoysToRead.com">GettingBoysToRead.com:</a></h2> <p>I launched <a href="http://www.GettingBoysToRead.com">http://www.GettingBoysToRead.com</a>&nbsp;a few years ago and have collected over 360,000 page views.&nbsp;We are a community based blog for parents, librarians, and teachers.
