From Your Principal, Mrs. Pass
Welcome to the Mustang Media Center Mrs. Dawson!
My name is Emily Dawson and I’m so excited to be joining your staff! I’m transferring from Goodridge Elementary where, for the past 8 years I’ve been the librarian (aka: media specialist, library media specialist, teacher-librarian, and one of my favorites, Library LadyJ).
I grew up in western Kentucky, received my Bachelor’s from UK, and taught 1st and 2nd grades in Scott County for 3 years. After completing my Master’s in Library and Information Science from UK, I worked as a librarian in Fayette County for 4 years.
In late 2004, I moved with my family to the Cincinnati area and now live on the west side of Hamilton County with my husband David, our children, Ben and Abby, and our dog Stella. Ben has just graduated from St. Xavier High School and will attend OSU in the fall. Abby has just finished her freshman year at Mount Notre Dame High School.
When I’m not being a librarian, some of my favorite things to do are travel, watch movies with my family, hike, bake, and garden. My favorite activities to watch are water polo and marching band, which happen to be the same activities my kids are involved in. J
