Staff Bio.
My name is Mrs. Cover and I am excited to be your teacher librarian here at Grant! I have been at Grant for 15 years total--10 years teaching English and 5 years as the teacher librarian. I also taught English for two years at a neighboring school before returning to Grant.
I earned my BA in English, my single subject teaching credential (English), and my Master's in Education (English Education) all from Cal State Northridge. I earned my teacher librarian credential from San Jose State University.
I hope you love Grant as much as I do and will visit the library often! I am here to help with research, finding books, and to support your learning in any way that I can. Please feel free to come see me at any time with any questions you may have.
