School Librarians Recognized as Teachers of the Year

By Donna DiMichele | October 28, 2015

The Office of Library and Information Services is pleased to share this announcement from the School Librarians of Rhode Island, the state professional association for librarians in pK-12 schools.

Two more school librarians were named 2015 Teacher of the Year in their districts: Suzanne Lynch of Stony Lane and Forest Park Elementary Schools in North Kingstown and Beth Gorter of Hanaford Elementary in East Greenwich join Joan Mouradjian of Narragansett Middle School in Narragansett and Jennifer Robinson of Thompson Middle School in Newport as honorees this year.

In 2014, three other school librarians received the honor.

“The fact that 7 out of 36 districts have recognized the work done by school librarians as educators shows that fellow teachers appreciate the value the position – and the highly trained professionals who fill it – brings to both their students and their colleagues,” says Sarah Hunicke of Portsmouth High School, president of School Librarians of Rhode Island.
