Ms. Regan and blogging

First off, I'd like to say that I'm thrilled to be working at Marcellus Senior High School. I know it is a wonderful school district and community.

Now a little bit about myself. I graduated from Syracuse University with a MSLIS (Master's of Library and Information Science) in 2007. For the past 5 years, I was the library media specialist at Corcoran High School in Syracuse, NY. Prior to that, I worked at I.S. 61 Leonardo DaVinci in Queens, NY for 2 years.


This blog will an informational resource for students, staff, parents and the community.
