Coudersport Rotary Club had Coudersport Jr/Sr High School Media Specialist Laura Bryant as our speaker at our October 2, 2023, meeting.

The position of Media Specialist has been unfilled for 10 years at Coudersport Jr/Sr High School Library. Last year a lot of duct work was done and she has done a lot of rearranging to make the library more appealing to students. She is grateful for the football players and 4 other students who helped move books and reorganize them.

Laura teaches gifted and Special Ed, 8 year Media Literacy (where students learn to find reliable sources and detect Deep Fakes), is advisor for Chess, Rocket, and Mock Trial groups.

She has also started a ski club which goes to Swain on 6 Sundays during the winter.

Laura has gotten grants for 15 drones for Robotics, and has created a Maker Space which can be used during Study Hall by students who have finished their academic work.

Thank you, Laura, for speaking before Coudersport Rotary Club!
