Hello! My name is Amanda Birro, the new library media specialist at Nyack High School. Having just relocated to the area, I am excited to be a new member of the Nyack community. I look forward to helping students find the resources they need to accomplish both academic and personal tasks. One of my goals is to have the library help each student achieve their maximum potential as 21st century learners. I aspire to create a welcoming environment for all.
