About Mrs. Holder

After teaching Kindergarten, 1st, and 2nd grades in MCPS for 19 years, I joined the Pine Crest staff last year as the school library media specialist. This change has been a wonderful experience for me. The role of library media specialist combines my love of reading, research, organization, and building relationships with students. It may take me a little time to learn all 475 names, but I will try my best to get to know each student and their reading habits.

I hope to expand the activities offered in the library so it can be a happy place for all students. I firmly believe that all are welcome here.

“Books are sometimes windows, offering views of worlds that may be real or imagined, familiar or strange. These windows are also sliding glass doors, and readers have only to walk through in imagination to become part of whatever world has been created or recreated by the author. When lighting conditions are just right, however, a window can also be a mirror.”
