About The Teacher

This will be my second year at Britt David.  I have always taught second 
graders, beginning with my student teaching experience at Wynnton School, 
under the supervision of the wonderful Mrs. Seckinger.  I gradeuated from 
Troy University with a Master's in Elementary Education.  My first year of 
teaching occurred at Mathews Elementary School with second graders.  I was 
the last one hired during that year, so when Midland Academy was built you 
know what that means.  I became homeless!  During the past seven years, I 
have taught second graders at Midland Academy.  I am very excited about the 
new challenge of teaching fourth graders at this wonderful school.

Now a little about my personal life away from school!  I have been married 
to the best man on the face of the Earth for six years now!  His name is 
Gary.  We live in Phenix City, Alabama with our two dogs.  Our dogs are the 
sweetest animals in the world.  We have a yellow lab, "Fletcher"'s Yeller 
Head and a Pomeranian, Iluv "Lucy" Head.  We are expecting our first child 
this October.  I love to participate in outdoor activities, such as, 
camping, ridinig horses, crafts and BASEBALL.  I have grown with age to love 
reading.  It is a great release of stress for me these days!  My husband and 
I are members of Golden Acres Baptist Church.  Some of my role models are 
Laura Bush, Reba McEntire, Mark Richt (love the coach but WAR EAGLE) and my 
mother.  I love what they stand for in their everyday life.  That is a 
little about me and what and who I love in my life.

Mission For The Class

"If you always do what you've always done, you will always be where you've 
always been."

I love this quote, and I want to center my class around this belief.  If we 
dare to explore and take risks, we will become learners with a purpose.  I 
believe in challenging each child on their own academic level, so each one 
will experience mastery no matter where they are in life.
