About Me
I am Lisa Boone. I was born & raised in the Atlanta area. I attended UGA (GO DAWGS!). I received my Masters at Georgia State in Early Childhood Development with a focus on brain development. I have been married 31 years and have 2 grown children, ages 26 and 23. Rachel is a Georgia Southern graduate (Graphic Design/Marketing) and Mitchell is currently working on a degree there as well. (Hail Southern!).
I began my career in 1st grade in the Metro Atlanta area. After having children I stayed home with them for 8 years. When my youngest went to Kindergarten, I went as well! I taught Kinder for 13 years in Forsyth County. My husband & I moved to Bryan County in 2019 to begin our “empty nest” years on the coast. Here I have taught Kinder, Pre-K & 2nd grade. I am so excited to spend this 26th year of teaching with you, sharing from my experiences as a teacher and a mom. Looking forward to sharing my passion!!
