Welcome to English! I'm thrilled about another year in the Petal School District. This is my 15th year teaching high school English, and I love working in my hometown of Petal. I earned my undergraduate degree in English from Mississippi State University and continued my graduate studies at William Carey University, earning a Masters of Education. I am currently pursuing a Specialist's degree in Educational Leadership from WCU and will graduate in May. My husband, Jon, and I met during our time in Starkville, and we have two children, Lily and Cooper. Jon also works in the district as an Instructional Technology Specialist. We are thankful for the opportunity to be part of the Petal family and raise our children in such a wonderful community. Go Panthers!
