Mrs. McIntosh has been a teacher for the past 12 years and is in her sixth year at Elk Creek as the Digital Teacher Librarian. She holds a Master's Degree in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis in Instructional Technology and a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. She received her JeffCo Digital Teacher Librarian certification through UCD.
Before becoming a digital teacher librarian, she was an elementary classroom teacher in grades kindergarten, first and third. A Texas native, she moved to this mountain community fifteen years ago with her husband and two children, who also attend Elk Creek Elementary and West Jeff Middle.
Her vision for the library is to instill the love of reading in each student and prepare each student as a 21st century digital learner through collaborative lessons with their classroom teachers.
