Hello! My name is L. Wimberly Roberson, and this is my seventh year teaching at Warner Robins Middle School.

Before I began my teaching career at Warner Robins Middle, I worked as a substitute for the Houston County School System. I also worked at Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida! Serving as an attractions cast member, I spent my days hanging out with singing birds at The Enchanted Tiki Room and flying magic carpets with Aladdin in Magic Kingdom! It was a truly unforgettable experience, and I will always be a Disney Cast Member at heart!
