Hi, 

My name is Lori Clafton and I have been teaching here at JW Smith for the past 5 year. 

I have been married to my husband Pat for the past 39 years.  We have two witty grown children, Tony and Kayla.   They have blessed me with 6 beautiful grandchildren.  

This will be 22 year in education.   I have my Masters in Elementary Education and specialized in Reading.  I was a Reading Recovery teacher for 15 year before coming back into kindergarten.

I love a good book, hot cup of coffee and driving fast cars.  You can usually find me enjoying some quiet time at our cabin or playing with my grandchildren.
