Craig Elementary PTA
Hats Off to Dorrie Gann, our Craig Media Specialist!
Why are media centers so critical to the whole learner?
- Students read more and learn more when they can choose what they read. First we must teach children to read, but then we want them to LOVE to read.
- The media center is a mental and physical safe space that welcomes all who want to read for learning, to explore new ideas or just for fun.
- The media center is a kitchen, not a grocery store….more than a grab and go, the library provides makerspaces, productivity software, broadcast equipment and a professional media specialist – all combine to make our libraries learning and collaboration labs.
Local School Council
Each year Craig elects two parents, one of whom is a business person, and one teacher for our local school council. The local school council meets four times per school year. The local school council brings parents and the community together with teachers and school administrators to create a better understanding of and mutual respect for each other's concerns and share ideas for school improvement.
