The Georgia Library Media Association and Georgia Library Association sponsor a yearly recognition for exemplary media programs across the state of Georgia. Locally each school’s media committee is required to evaluate their school's program using a rubric. The goal is to identify outstanding media program(s) making a difference in student achievement each year. Selected media programs are encouraged to apply for the Georgia Exemplary Media Program honor.
It is my pleasure to announce Bradwell Institute, Midway Middle School, Liberty Elementary, and Taylors Creek Elementary have been named Exemplary Media Programs by the Liberty County Media Committee for 2014. All of the listed programs have met the exemplary criteria and will be honored at the LCSS June 10th board meeting.
Since Bradwell Institute and Midway Middle School have already been selected for the exemplary state-wide honor, neither school is eligible to apply for the 2014 selection process. However, both Taylors Creek and Liberty Elementary will complete the application process for statewide consideration.
The selected programs excel in their level of instruction and influence on student achievement. The level of technology integration is exceptionally high. The staffing for each of the programs is optimal. The facilities, level of access, and provided resources support the needs of staff and students. The level of administrative support is evident for each of the programs listed, and the media specialists are engaged in professional development while providing opportunities for growth in their school setting.
