Meet Your Teacher I am so excited to begin our 2019-2020 school year together! First graders are so much fun, and I am looking forward to lots of big smiles and hugs! It is so rewarding to watch each students´ social and academic growth throughout the year. I am ready for a year full of new friends and exciting adventures! I grew up in Fayetteville, Georgia and graduated from Fayette County High School. I continued my education at Mercer University and West Georgia. This will be my 29th year teaching elementary school in Fayette County. I have taught kindergarten, first, third and fourth. I have a wonderful husband, Jeffrey, to whom I have been married for 26 years. My older daughter, Sarah is 19 and a sophmore at Southern Crescent Technical College. My youngest daughter Emily is a 12th grader at Whitewater High School and is in the marching band. I love spending time with my family! I look forward to getting to know my students and their families! Education is a partnership, and in order to make this year a success, I need your help. Communication is key! Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have questions or concerns. I am looking forward to moving ahead with our first grade journey!
