My name is Paula Watts, music director at North Middle School. I am a native to Franklin County. After graduation I moved to Cookeville to attend Tennessee Tech University to major in Music Education with a focus on flute. After receiving my bachelor's degree, I moved back and accepted a job back in Franklin County Schools at Decherd Elementary, where I taught for two years. I am now here at North Middle School teaching music in the form of band and choir classes. I am married to Jared Watts, science teacher here at NMS, and the mother to Danny, Easton, Oaklynn, and Rylan. We have a lot of animals. I like to joke that it is like a mini zoo at our house. :) When I'm not enjoying working with our music students, I love spending time with my family at home on our mini farm, camping on the lake, reading, building book nooks, and crafting.
