About

Hi, I am Jennifer Nicholson.  I worked 9 years as a public librarian before switching to becoming a school media coordinator in 2018.  I have been with Patriots STEM Elementary since January 2021.

I live on an 80-acre cattle farm with my Chocolate Dapple Mini-Dachshund dog and my Ragdoll cat.

I have a son who loves Legos!

I love Harry Potter, Star Trek, and black jelly beans!  And I filled a bucket item by meeting LeVar Burton!!!

  • The Patriots STEM Elementary Book Fair is an exciting event that brings the joy of books to our students while supporting our library programs. Parents, you can make shopping easy and cash-free by filling your child’s eWallet, a digital payment option that empowers students to shop independently while staying within budget.  We also need volunteers to help make this event a success! From setting up displays to assisting young readers in finding their next favorite book, your time and support make a big difference.

  •  

    Students can expand their access to library collections by linking their school accounts with the public library and its resources (specifically SORA or NC Kids Digital).
