My name is Lisa Christopher.  This is my fourth year with Longview ISD as a 2nd grade teacher at J.L. Everhart.  I previously taught 1st grade for 9 years at Marshall ISD.  I am a graduate of Marshall High School, earned a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education from Wiley College and then earned a Master of Education in Teaching and Learning from Liberty University.  I have a passion and love for children and an understanding of how they need to be nurtured.  My desire is to motivate and inspire children, have a positive impact on their sense of self-worth, their learning and their lives. In my opinion, the way to connect with students and impact their lives rests in one word- liberation.  The word liberation means without boundaries and limits.  I want every kid that comes through my classroom door to leave with a liberated mind.  My goal is to teach every student that there is no limit to what they can do in life.  Thank you for allowing me the opportunity to share in the growth and development of your child.
