Library certification indicates that Mundell’s efforts to support teachers have resulted in measurable improvements in student performance at New England Kurn Hattin Homes.

“Sally exemplifies the kind of commitment to the success of every student that is at the heart of effective schools,” said Judi Paul, Co-Chair of the Board at Renaissance Learning.

To receive Renaissance Library certification as a Reading Model Library, librarians must document that their practices encourage student access to a wide variety of books as well as supporting reading practice and self-directed learning. In addition, the librarian must be actively working with individual students to meet Renaissance recommended standards for reading achievement.

Kurn Hattin Homes is a year-round, charitable home and school for in-need and at-risk boys and girls, ages 6-15, from throughout the northeast.
