Neil Armstrong Elementary in Bettendorf


One of my most favorite things about traveling throughout Iowa are times when I get to reconnect with friends I've known over the years. Pictured here with me is long-time friend and past president of the Bettendorf EA, Margie Schwaninger. We are actually in the Media Center in Armstrong Elementary (where Margie is the Media Specialist), not on a warm island location in the Caribbean! I would like to applaud the Bettendorf Schools for acknowledging the critical importance of having a part of every school team of professionals, a certificated Media Specialist!




Pictured here by the portrait of astronaut Neil Armstrong are our
"tour guides" (EA leaders from Armstrong!), Lisa Wilson (left), Patricia "Patty" Tapping (in green), and Patty's student teacher, Whitney Menold, from Augustana (far right). Thanks for all that you do every day-- Neil Armstrong teacher leaders to give great opportunities for all of Iowa's students!
