Hello !  My name is Mrs. Atkinson. This is my 6th year teaching and first year at Petal. I was born and raised in Brandon, MS . I have been married to my husband Curt for 8 years and I have a son , Logan (7) and daughter, Leighton (4) . I earned my Bachelor's from Missisippi University for Women, and I am currently pursuing my Master's of Education at Mississippi College.  I love to spend time with my friends and family, travel, read, bake and cheer on the Clemson Tigers ! I can not wait to meet my students and I know that we will have a fantastic year! I am so excited to be a PETAL PANTHER!
