About Mrs. Gentry

I've been in Georgia since 1982. I've lived in the west, mid-west, north, 
east and south. I attended University of Florida, but got my B.S. degree in 
Early Childhood Education at Kennesaw State University and recently earned my 
Masters there also.  More recently I attended Georgia State 
University to earn my Specialist degree in Early Childhood Education.
Needless to say I enjoy school both teaching and attending.

I have two families, at home and at school. My family at home is becoming 
smaller.  My son is a junior in college  and my daughter is in college 
pursuing a teaching degree. My husband and I and two cats keep busy working, 
reading, playing tennis and traveling.

My school family at Tritt is great!  I started out being very involved in PTA 
when we moved here in 1994.  I highly recommend getting involved with Tritt's 
PTA.  I did a lot of subbing and eventually worked in the P.E. department 
which was great to get to know the kids and be active!  For eight years I 
taught kindergarten and now I'm lucky to teach second grade!

Mission For The Class

Every child can learn and should be given the chance in a variety of 
enriching, educational experiences. My classroom is nurturing, fun, and 
educational so children can be one step closer to becoming more independent 
and a contributing member inside our school community as well as outside it.
