ABOUT ME:

     Hi!  My name is Shana La Vine.  I grew up in Marietta, GA, going to school at Mt. Bethel, Dickerson, 
and I graduated from Walton in 1996.  I then went to Georgia Southern University where I graduated 
in May of 2001 with my Bachelor's in Early Childhood Education.  In December 2005, I earned my 
Master's degree from Kennesaw State University, also in Early Childhood Education.  (This was an 
amazing learning experience that I was happy to share with several other teachers from East Side.)

     It's hard for me to imagine, but the 2009-2010 school year is my ninth year of teaching at 
East Side Elementary.  It's incredible how time really does fly when you're having fun!  My first class 
of students are entering their second year of high school this year- WOW!!!  

     I taught second grade for five years, and three years ago, I had the wonderful opportunity to loop 
up to third grade with my class.  That was a great decision.  So, this year is my fourth year 
teaching third grade and I am very excited.  Third graders have such amazing things happening in 
their heads while they are going through the huge transition from second grade to third grade.

     I feel very fortunate to be in a career where I have so much enthusiasm for what I do and for the 
young people who I work with.  I truly appreciate and admire how their young minds work and I am 
very grateful to have these young people as my "co-workers."  I feel that I learn as much from the 
students as they do from me, and in turn, they learn from each other.  What wonderful symbiotic 
relationships!
