Congratulations to our very own Dr. Kelly Passek for being named Virginia School Librarian of the year. @VAASL Her work as a media specialist provides a showcase for the amazing and important role of school libraries across the state.

I would argue education is not data or curriculum driven and not even student driven. Education is relationship driven. Teachers thrive w/ positive admin relationships & students thrive w/ positive teacher relationships. Relationships drive education.
