Curators Office Contact me at [email protected] My first year
at Chestatee High School was in 2013. I returned to the educational
field as a computer lab manager at West Hall Middle School after a
15 year break. I then transferred to East Hall Middle School as a
technology teacher. After about 2 years, I was fortunate to become
the media specialist here at Chestatee. I enjoy working with
teachers and students. Learning new technology is a passion of
mine. Lana Nix Media Specialist Note: Virtual museums were first

Should you plan on visiting the media center, you need to make
sure you have your agenda with you and signed each and every time.
Even visits before or after school require you to have a teachers
signature in your agenda. You are allowed to have a teacher sign
your agenda making a note that you will be visiting the media
center every morning or every afternoon if you wish. Each student
is to scan their barcode to sign in whenever they visit the media
center without a teacher and their class. Return to Exhibit Passes

Click here to view the floor plan. Fiction are those books
which are untrue in nature. They are full of fantasy, sci-fi,
mystery, romance, humor, emotions and can tend to take your
imagination anywhere. Fiction books are shelved with an F and the
first 3 letters of the authors last name. Example: Hunger Games by
Suzanne Collins would be found in the fiction section in
alphabetical order under COL. Return to Exhibit Fiction
Slide 14
Reference books are those you might use while researching a
topic for a paper or project. Here at Chestatee, we have moved all
of our reference books into their own room which also gives
students access to a large conference style table to spread the
books out. Reference books may be checked out, but only for the
evening. They need to be returned the next day for other students
to have access to them. The laptops within our reference room are
intended for our online Spanish students. Return to Exhibit

our magazines are housed in the Reading Room. We have 2 couches for
