My name is Mary, and I earned my degree in elementary education with endorsements in mathematics and social studies 7-12 from the University of Mississippi. I knew I wanted to continue my education to further improve my skills as a teacher; therefore, I attended Delta State University and received my master's in elementary education. As a teacher, my main objective and talent is to grow students academically thru a variety of effective, hands-on, and intriguing lessons. Teaching is my passion! I have taught language arts for five years and within those five years, I have been nominated teacher of the year twice. Each year my state scores have proved my ability to effectively teach students and help each student reach their highest potential. My goal is to help students not only be successful on grade level but gain the skills and knowledge to help each child be college ready. With the implementation of Common Core, my background knowledge will enhance each student's knowledge not only to improve their grades but also their knowledge to lead a successful education pathway.
