About The Teacher
Deanna Desmond: I have been teaching for 21 years and I am delighted to be your teacher this year. I am a graduate of Southeastern Louisiana University and I have a Master's degree in School and Family Counseling. Though I very much enjoy the conseling field, I am not yet ready to leave my classroom because I enjoy teaching and love to see the growth my students make each year. I began my teaching career teaching fourth grade at Mandeville Middle, then I moved here to Tchefuncte when we opened. It has been my pleasure to teach both fourth and fifth grade here. I am the proud mother of two beautiful daughters. My 8 year old is in third grade and my 5 year old is in Kindergarten at Pontchartrain Elementary. Both girls love to dance, sing and play dolls. In my free time I love reading and scrapbooking. As a family, we love to travel and believe that the next adventure is just around the corner. We love playing together and feel that family time is the most important time! Sherry Leedy: This will be my 18th year of having the best job in the world, teaching children. I began my teaching career in Jefferson Parish where I taught sixth grade for 9 years before moving to the northshore in 2003. I was so excited to become part of Tchefuncte Middle School's faculty during the 2003-2004 school year. Gators are Awesome! My husband, Stephen, and I have been married for 16 years and have a beautiful seven year old daughter. Brianne keeps us busy, laughing, and definitely up-to-date on fairies & princesses! My hobbies are scrapbooking and going to the movies.
