Hello! My name is Dutcha Lawson and I am so excited to be the Library Media Specialist at Homewood High School. I have worked in a library since 2006. I love working in the library so that I can help students find that just-right book, their next great read or accessing information. I strive to create a collaborative learning space where research, creative learning and the sharing of knowledge takes place.

I graduated from the University of Alabama with my BS degree as well as a Masters degree in Library and Information Studies. I recently completed my EdS degree from the University of Montevallo.

I started my library career in Ocala, FL. I have since then worked in public schools near Birmingham as well as a public library in Shelby County. I enjoy teaching information literacy and all things related to the library, meeting students, and working with the awesome HHS faculty and staff. 

I am married with two grown children. I enjoy reading, travelling, sports, crafts and spending time with my family. I look forward to serving your students and working at Homewood High School. Please let me know if I can ever be of assistance to you!
