Meet Mrs. Carr

I have been passionately teaching for over 25 years. I have enjoyed my teaching years in PK-4th grade-spending the most time in second grade (15 years). I have a BS in Accounting, MS in Ed in Early Childhood and K-12 Gifted Licensure from Kent State University in Ohio. I just love learning (and teaching too)!! I reached my proudest career moment when I achieved National Board Certified Teacher status in November of 2014. Last year, I added Level 1 Google Certified Educator to my list of fun things I did!

I live in Cary with my wonderful husband and our adorable dogs, Cupcake and Trixie. Our sons are grown. One is an electrical engineer and the other is a middle school science teacher. We love having fun and going on vacations together. Mr. Carr and I have been to Disney World over 26 times!! Shopping is my favorite "sport"! I love searching for unique things at vintage markets, painting old furniture so that it looks groovy again, reading and watching historical fiction, and baking with my grandmother’s recipes.
