South Lexington School
Hometown:
Lexington, NC
Class Information:
Room Number: 106
Students per Class: 23
Class Description:
I teach a very diverse group of students. Our school is approximately 93% free and reduced lunch, which means our students come from poor backgrounds. Our students rarely get to explore life like many other children in our country. They don't have a great deal of life experiences to connect to academic situations so it is important to me that I make as many as I can through thier learning. I enjoy using technology as a major teaching tool, especially being that a very small percentage of my students, if any, have any technology in their homes.
Position:
Teacher
Needs:
Any basic school supplies along with digital cameras, thumb drives, photo paper and batteries for cameras. Pretty much anything that can be donated is GREATLY appreciated.
Personal Information:
About Me:
I am beginning my 8th year of teaching. I am from a small town in central NY state. I moved south and accepted a teaching job at my current school and don't plan on leaving any time soon. I love my school and the students that we serve.
College and Degrees:
I attended Marshall University in Huntington, WV where I received my BA in K-8 elementary education and 6-9 language arts and social studies.
Favorite Books:
Any childrens books and anything by Jodi Picoult
Favorite Quotes:
"Ships at a distance have everyman's dreams on board." A teacher's purpose is not to create students in his own image, but to develop students who can create their own image. ~Author Unknown "A master can tell you what he expects of you. A teacher, though, awakens your own expectations." ~Patricia Neal
Interests:
Computers, photography
Employment History:
Worked all through highschool and college in restaurants. After graduating college I accepted the teaching position that I currently hold.
Why Do I Teach?:
Honestly, because I hated school as a kid and I vowed to be a teacher that would make learning fun and show ALL kids, not just the students from money backgrounds, that they were worth something.
