📚 Celebrating National Library Week: Honoring Ms. Taylor! 🌟

During National Library Week, we are proud to recognize someone who brings our school library to life each and every day—Ms. Taylor!

Ms. Taylor is so much more than a librarian—she is a connector, a coordinator, and a champion for our students. From organizing exciting school spirit events and meaningful fundraisers to planning engaging demonstrations like the Mobile Dairy experience and visits from the Texas Wildlife Association, she creates unforgettable learning opportunities for our Cardinals. She also leads one of our most anticipated academic events of the year—the school spelling bee—encouraging students to challenge themselves and celebrate their learning.

Her passion for building relationships extends beyond our campus. Ms. Taylor has been working to connect our students with organizations like Equest, helping plan unique field trips that expand learning far beyond the classroom. She also fosters a love of reading through programs like reading buddies, bringing students together in ways that inspire confidence and joy.

💬 What Our Staff Is Saying:

"She has been connecting with Equest (equestrian organization with therapy horses) and planning our field trips. She is very good at coordinating events for our school. I really appreciate everything she does for Caldwell."

"I really appreciate how engaging and welcoming our librarian is. My students genuinely enjoy going to her class and always look forward to the activities and lessons she plans. As a mom, I appreciate her even more—my daughter loves going to the library and comes home excited to share what she’s learned about her books. She even pretends to be Ms. Taylor and “teaches” me all about her book, which shows how much of an impact she’s making." 😊

"Mrs. Taylor, I truly love your energy and the jokes you share during the morning announcements; they are the perfect way to start the day. I also appreciate your exceptional service to both teachers and students, especially your help in finding research topics.  You are such an important part of our school community!" 

"Ms. Taylor is very knowledgeable about the books she has in our library. She is also passionate about her work; the moment I met her I knew she truly loves her job and our children. This is not just a job for her but a vocation and it truly shows every time she interacts with my students and myself. Hats off to her. I appreciate all she has done for us."

"Ms. Taylor is truly an amazing librarian, and she has a great personality. She brings several awesome programs to our school that our students get to enjoy. She is always willing to answer a question for you or lend a helping hand. 🙂  "

Ms. Taylor’s creativity, dedication, and heart for students make our library a vibrant hub of learning and connection. Her impact is felt not only in our classrooms, but in the excitement students carry home each day.

📖 Thank you, Ms. Taylor, for inspiring a love of reading, learning, and community at Caldwell Elementary. We are so grateful for you!
