It is hard to believe that I have been teaching for 19 years! I must say that I cannot imagine doing anything else. Although I have been teaching quite awhile, this is only my third year teaching at Bailey Elementary School. Over the years I have had many opportunities to work, learn and grow from the various staff, students and parents I have worked with. I feel very fortunate to get up in the morning and know that I get to teach children. A job I love!
