Name of Your School / Library / Organization:
I am a national board certified elementary teacher that has been teaching elementary school for 13 years. I never thought I would want to leave the classroom but two years ago I began the path to becoming a library media specialist. I completed my degree in December and in the last week accepted a Library Media Specialist at the middle school level. I AM REALLY NERVOUS! I have only been with the little ones for so long.

Greetings Jessica Lynn,
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
