Meet our School Librarians: This Week…Sarah Manley
We would like to introduce you to Sarah Manley who is the Library Media Specialist at Onondaga Road Elementary School and West Genesee Intermediate School.
She is a Syracuse University graduate, where she received her Master’s Degree as a School Library Media Specialist in 2017. She also received her Bachelor’s Degree of Arts in Anthropology and Forensics from SUNY Oswego in 2012.
Manley started her career as a librarian in the Fulton City School District and also spent 2 years at Welch Allyn providing computer program training.
She grew up in Fulton, NY and currently lives in Baldwinsville with her husband, Alex and her children, Lachlan (6) and Henrik (4).
In her spare time, she loves to read, sail, work on jigsaw puzzles, and hang out with her golden retriever. Perhaps, once her children are a bit older, she’ll be able to participate in hobbies again.
West Genesee CSD wishes all of our students, staff, and their families a Happy Thanksgiving!
Students at Onondaga Road have been very thankful this past week!
