    September Reading Log

     Looking for homerun books! White House visit with the family.

    Hi, my name is Karen Kirk and I am the librarian here at Harris. I love working in the school library! The 2020-21 school year is my 8th year in the library and my 22nd in education. I am a Texas certified teacher for PreK-Grade 8 and an all-level certified school librarian. I received my Master’s Degree from University of Houston Clear Lake.  I was born here in Texas and grew up in Pearland.

    What is the best part about working in the library? The students! I love helping our students discover their passion for reading and helping them find their perfect book and become independent and lifelong learners.

    When I am not in the library, I enjoy reading, swimming, and hanging out with Vivian and Andrew.
