Hello! I'm Mrs. Shirley Hargis, the library media specialist at Bradley. This is my fourth year in the Fort Leavenworth school district.

Education and work background: I have a master’s degree in library science from Emporia State University in Kansas. Previously I taught English, with a degree from Wichita State University, and worked as a newspaper reporter and editor, with a master’s degree in journalism from the University of Kansas.

 

 

Personal: I’m a native Kansan, but lived in Colorado for a few years – and although I love visiting the mountains, I missed the smell of rain and the beauty of Kansas sunsets. I love to read, especially mysteries, and enjoy following the activities of my husband and two sons.
