WELCOME TO MY SITE!!!!
Hi, welcome to my webpage. My name is Mrs. Shelley Graves and I teach 8th grade ELA at Taylorville Junior High School. I graduated from Hanover College with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Political Science and the University of South Dakota with a Master's of Education degree. I also have a 6-8 grade middle school endorsement. I am married to Gregg Fuerstenau and have two grown children, Grant and Courtney. I have lived in Taylorville since 2006 and both of my children went to Taylorville schools most of their lives.
My personal philosophy of teaching reflects a deep respect for my students and a commitment to recognizing each student's individual way of learning. I have high expectations of my students and try to help them develop the confidence needed to take responsiblity for their own learning.
On my website, you can find class rules, daily homework, daily activities and lessons that we are learning. Contact me at sgraves@tcusd3.org or 824-4924 with any questions or concerns you may have regarding your child and his or her education.
