Hello, my name is Kimberly Harbison, and I am the library media specialist at West Point High School.  I am an alumnus of West Point (1997), Wallace State College, Athens State University (B. S. Ed. 2003), and The University of West Alabama (M. Ed. 2007).  I earned my Education Specialist Degree in Library Media from The University of West Alabama in 2021. I became the library media specialist at West Point High School in 2009; prior to becoming a librarian, I taught English Language Arts in grades 7 and 8 for five years.  I enjoy working with the students in grades 9-12 on a daily basis, helping them to find books to read and resources for projects as well as helping the students to use our available technology; with our flexible schedule, the library staff is available to assist students with technology and resources at any time during our school day. My husband, Jimmy Harbison, also teaches at WPHS; we have a daughter and a son who attend school at West Point.  Outside school, I enjoy reading, cooking and baking, photography, re-purposing old furniture, genealogy research, singing, travel, and activities with my family and church. I consider myself to be a lifelong learner. I feel that reading, research skills, and technology use are vital to lifelong learning and that anyone can enjoy reading when he or she finds the right book that interests him or her.
