Profile Information

Hometown:: Dallas, Texas

Name of Your School / Library / Organization:: I moved to the Dallas, Texas area in 2009 after spending the last fourteen years as the high school librarian at Dorman High School in Roebuck, South Carolina. It was sad to leave such a great school but I was fortunate to quickly find another librarian position in Dallas. During my second year in north Texas, I took a library position closer to home in a small middle school and love the opportunities of helping this community emerge into the 21st Century.

Twilight Party

Our media center hosted a successful Twilight party with over 125 high school students and faculty attending. Refreshments were served, many played Twilight bingo, students played Twilight Jeaporday against the faculty, and gifts were given to many. You could even get your picture taken with Edward as seen in the picture with Ashley Layne.

I'm Mike McQueen, teacher librarian and founder of http://www.GettingBoysToRead.com. Like many school districts, we are in a financial crises. Our school board recently proposed to eliminate ALL 20+ middle school teacher librarians and also cut all 90+ elementary schools to half time. Since we are the biggest district in all of Colorado, we worry this will cause other districts to follow suit. We launched an online movement and are going to do our best to put up a good fight. If possible, please visit our Facebook page and "Like" us http://www.facebook.com/SupportSchoolLibraries . Adding a positive comment and sharing with your friends would help our morale as well. The board finalizes the budget soon so your timely support would be greatly appreciated!

Sincerely,

Mike McQueen

You can go to the TLA website at www.txla.org and join the TLC mailing list for school librarians and you will hear of job openings. Marilyn Beaird is the library coordinator at Lewisville ISD (which includes Flower Mound, Highland Village, The Colony and several other smaller towns) and she will know of upcoming vacancies.

At 8:22pm on March 5, 2009, Carol Simpson said…: "Highly qualified" per Texas law means that you have passed the Texas certification exam or otherwise meet the NCLB "highly qualified" definition.

I have worked on my 720 paper and a presentation I am doing for the English teachers at my internship school. I was supposed to be there Monday and Tuesday so now am going to have to reschedule those days. I'll be in touch mid-month if I am going to be able coming to visit your LMC.

At 7:46pm on March 3, 2009, Fran Bullington said…: Hey, Sue! Hope you've enjoyed our snow days. Tomorrow is back to work time.

At 9:21pm on January 12, 2009, Fran Bullington said…: Hey Sue - I will be in touch about coming to visit your media center.

At 6:38pm on January 8, 2009, Angela Blair said…: Sure, I love your Twilight photos.
