Amy Ralph, amyralph@ncslma.org

My name is Amy Ralph and I have been an educator for thirteen years. I am currently in my eighth  year as a media specialist in Lexington City Schools.  I have a strong passion for teaching both students and teachers. One of my greatest strengths is providing and planing professional development for educators. Over the last 7 years I have provided a monthly professional development for my staff at the school level. I have also presented at our district’s beginning on the year professional development every year. I have helped educators grow using their own expertise by presenting  and or organizing  Edcamps at the district, state, and national levels. I have presented at nErDcampMI three times, assisted my district in planning our own Edcamp, and I am the primary organizer and a co-founder of @nErDcampNC.  I love participating in NCSLMA events. I have presented  at the NCSLMA annual conference five times and I was a state expert during the first year of the mentor/mentee program.  Currently I am on the professional development team at the district level. I am also a member of the district technology team (I3 team). I have a passion for our profession and believe that we play a major role in supporting the students and educators in our state.
