TCEA LMS of the Year Nomination

Just before the Winter Break, I received a call from TCEA. I was told that I am a TCEA LMS of the Year finalist for this year! I am beyond excited and am looking forward to TCEA (Texas Computer Educator Association) more than ever! I am passionate about my job as a media specialist (and BTW, our job title is changing...we're now Media Resource Specialists (or M.R.S. - ha!) I am so blessed to work with an amazing group of teachers at McGowen Elementary, where our innovative and creative ideas are welcomed and many times implemented! Not only do I have wonderful teachers to work with, there are approximately 700 precious students that walk the halls of McGowen every day. I love everything about my job - the students, the teachers, my administrators, and yes, the technology that MISD is so blessed to have. I am honored to be recognized as a TCEA LMS of the Year and will be excited just to be in the same room with all the other nominees. As a nominee, I am well aware that I am representing my campus, my district and other MRS's who work for McKinney ISD. There is NO WAY I would be where I am without the amazing team of media specialists that work with me. Talk about a team full of creative and brilliant minds! It is quite the challenge to keep up with everyone and all the ideas that flow every time we meet (or don't actually meet - maybe we're chatting on Twitter!) I am simply honored that I am allowed to work alongside these people and they keep letting me come back! Maybe I'll start blogging more...this sure is a great way for me to get some of these thoughts outta my head and out to the world!
