I am very excited to be one of your student's teachers this year! I am currently starting my 5th year teaching. In 2020, I graduated from Appalachian State University with a degree in Elementary Education and a concentration in Math, Science, and Technology. Since the start of my teaching career I have mainly taught upper grades, primarily 3rd and 5th grade. I am ecstatic to start this new school year at Virginia Williamson and with this amazing 5th grade team.
