Annie Allen

Rogers Middle School
Media Specialist

I have been the Media Specialist at Rogers Middle School in Rogers, MN since the start of the 2013-2014 school year. Before that I was a 5-12 Social Studies teacher. I have a passion for middle school literature and love to explore new technology tools that will make learning more meaningful and fun for students.
