The other Library Media Specialist will serve Netherwood Knoll Elementary School (.50 FTE) and Prairie View Elementary School (.50 FTE) for the 2023-24 school year. Netherwood and Prairie View are located next to each other. Starting with the 2024-25 school year, the District has reallocated funding, so this person will serve only one of those elementary schools, and the District will be seeking an additional Library Media Specialist for K-4.

  • Experience with literacy and technology for students in grades K-4
  • Establishing and communicate high academic expectations with regard to state and local curriculum objectives
  • Evaluating and maintaining materials for the general and professional collections
