My name is Angela Blankenship & I have been a teachers with JCPS for more than twenty years. I've taught fourth grade for most of those years! There is nothing about fourth grade that I don't love, but I am super excited to be Norton's gifted & talented teacher. I am eager to work with small groups of kids to help them develop their talents & explore their interests. When I am not teaching, I enjoy baking, reading, and traveling with my family. We especially love the outdoors, so hiking & exploring nature are often part of our trips. My son, Alex, is a Junior at north oldham high school. My daughter, Emma, is a seventh grader this year. We have three very spoiled dogs, Bella, Cooper & Sophie.
