Background Information

Greetings, I am Cynthia Ann Johnson, a second year media specialist in Wadley, Georgia, Jefferson County. I am a product of Louisville, GA. I am married and have 3 sons, two daughters-in-law and 5 grandchildren. I returned to college after my 40th birthday and obtained my bachelor’ degree. I received my undergraduate degree from Georgia College and State University in Middle Grades Education. I earned a M.Ed. in Instructional Education from Central Michigan University, my Ed.S in Teaching and Learning with an emphasis in Reading in May, 2008 from Georgia Southern University. I Thought I was finish with school but God opened another door for me.

I taught middle school for 13 years and thouroghly enjoyed every moment of it. Teaching reading is my passion. Last school year I was asked to be the Media Specialist at Carver Elementary in Wadley GA and accepted. I enjoy integrating technology with reading and collaborating with my fellow co-workers and I felt being the Media Specialist would give me the opportunity to learn more about technology, as well as assist teachers and students with using the media in the classroom. I enjoy finding books to help students read for pleasure. My goal is to complete an add-on in Instructional Technology and help children become life long lovers of reading.
