About Me

All about Mrs. Hicks!

Hello! I am Courtney Hicks, and I currently live in LaSalle County with my husband Dave and our 18 year old son Gabe. My son just graduated from High School and is headed on a path into the trades. While he waits to be admitted into the trade, he has created his own lawn care business and a detailing business with a buddy.

We are currently remodeling my husband's childhood home, and have prospect to be moving before the year 2024. I spent a lot of time this summer painting the house, I feel like I have mastered trimming 😆

We also have 2 French Bulldogs, Walter (Walt) and Winston (Winnie). They are like having two toddlers, so they keep me pretty busy. We love their daily antics!

I have been in education in some fashion for the last 23 years. I have taught 1st through 8th grade. I was also a RTI paraprofessional, 1 year at Sheridan Grade School and then 3 years at Saratoga Elementary. I attended Northern University where I received my Bachelors Degree in Education with a minor in Psychology. I then went back to school a few years ago to obtain my LBS1 endorsement in Special Education at St. Francis University. I would love to go back to obtain a Masters Degree in either Curriculum Instruction, Technology or Reading.

A few of my favorite things...
