Your Eastside Media Specialists

What are Ms. Patrick and Mrs. Molin reading this week? GO HERE

Ms. Alison Patrick

I have been a media specialist for many years and have worked at the elementary, middle, and high school levels.   This is my 16th year at Eastside High School.  I earned my Bachelor's Degree at Furman University, and my Master's Degree at The University of South Carolina, Columbia.  I enjoy working at the high school level, especially helping students with research and recreational reading.  I am also the Technology Assistance Coordinator at Eastside and enjoy helping students and teachers in that capacity.  

Mrs. Emily Molin

This will be my twelfth year in education and my tenth year as a teacher at Eastside High School. I graduated from Clemson University in 2001 with a degree in Language and International Trade (Spanish Language Concentration). I worked briefly in the business world for Newell-Rubbermaid Corporation, but ultimately returned to what I feel is my true calling as an educator through Clemson’s Post-Baccalaureate Teacher Certification Program, graduating in 2003. I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching Spanish language and culture for over a decade at the secondary level. In 2014, I completed the Master of Library and Information Science (MLIS) graduate degree through the University of South Carolina and I am very excited to work with students and teachers during the second half of the school day as a media specialist this year.


I have lived in Greenville (Greer as a child) my entire life. My husband Tommy and I have two wonderful children who always keep us on our toes. We are a dedicated Clemson family (GO Tigers!) and also love traveling when we can.  My favorite things in life are spending time with my family and getting lost in a really great book.
