Dear Students,
Welcome to our World History classroom. I am very excited about being your teacher! I know that we will learn a lot this year. I believe that learning should be fun and exciting, and I want you to know that I will expect a lot from each of you this year.
I graduated from UTC and have a Master's Degree from Tusculum College. This is my eleventh year teaching middle school. I taught the fourth grade for fifteen years and one year in the fifth grade. I coached the math team for five years and taught an after-school enrichment class for seven years. I enjoy teaching all subjects, but world history and math are my favorites. I also like to do a lot of hands-on activities and use technology in our classroom.
At home, I have three beautiful children. Stephen is twenty-four years old and just graduated from law school at UT in Knoxville. Anna Beth is twenty-two years old, and she got a basketball scholarship to Lee University. She is a senior this year and wants to be a teacher. Then the youngest is Callaway. He is sixteen and goes to Walker Valley High School. Callaway plays football for Walker Valley. I also have a boxer named Zoey. She is such a mess! I know that I will have many stories to tell you about our dog, Zoey.
I love my job, and there isn't any other occupation I would rather have or any other place I would rather teach than here at OMS. Remember that each one of you is very special to me.
Love,
Ms. Elliott
