Greetings! My name is Ms. Epley. This will be my 24th year of teaching and my 17th year in Hillsboro. I have taught pre-k, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and Kindergarten. I have now been in Kindergarten for 19 years! It is my favorite grade!
I have 2 little... or at least they used to be???... girls. Lexi 19 years and Kenzie is 15 1/2 years. They are awesome! Both of my children attended Hillsboro. Lexi is at Southeast Missouri State University and is studying Business. Kenzie is going into 10th grade at Hillsboro and loves to play basketball and volleyball. I have a dog, Sophie, and a cat, Ellie Buttercup.
I grew up in St. Louis County and attended Parkway North High School. I attended college at Southeast Missouri State University. I earned my degrees in Early Childhood and Elementary Education. I am currently working on my Master's Degree in Reading and am working to earn my Reading Certificate.
I have many hobbies! I love to scrapbook! I am a photo crazy person and I take pictures of everything! I am however a little behind in my albums... I am only on Kenzie's kindergarten year :( But that is my goal for this fall.
I also like to fish...particularly trout fishing.
My last favorite hobby is ... you guessed it, spending time with my darling little ones. I also enjoy spending time with my friends and my family. Lexi and Kenzie are my favorite way to spend my time!
We also spend a lot of time supporting the Hillsboro Hawk sports teams. I hope we see you at some of the games!
Kenzie also plays club volleyball, so I spend A LOT of time watching volleyball!
This summer I was able to partake in Pathways Reading training with some
fellow teachers. We will resume our training the first of August.
I can’t wait to get back to school and get my new...old room unpacked!
See you in August!
