I have been at Edmonds School District for over 15 years.    Before starting to work in the Library, I taught English for 10 years and History for another 8.  Originally from Spokane, I moved to this area to attend the University of Washington where I majored in English and Comparative History of Ideas (CHID). After graduating from the UW, I started  and completed my Master in Teaching Degree at Whitworth University in Spokane.

I have a passion for research and I am excited to help you find the sources that you need for your projects or life interests.

Mission

The mission of the Mountlake Terrace High School library is to empower the broad spectrum of students within the building  to become life-long learners and readers who are active and engaged citizens of their community. The  Edmonds School district is focused on creating graduates who are “ready for life” and able to navigate the information rich world and the library plays an important role in that mission by providing access to varied information and technology.

Mountlake Terrace  Library Goals:

To achieve this mission of empowering students, it is the goal of the library to support students through the following:

• Provide a space where members of the school community can meet to discuss, engage and explore ideas.

• Provide digital and physical materials for the exploration of ideas that aligns with the curriculum and interests of the learners in the building.

• Materials provided by the library need to be at multiple levels in order to be accessible and rigorous to the diversity of learners and abilities within the building including Multilingual Learners, Special Education Students and STEM students
