Hello!  My name is Terri and I was educated in the Mobile County School System.  I have taught middle school for the past 22 years!  I have been teaching since 1998.  My experience includes 16 years of teaching 5th grade, and this is currently my 6th year teaching 6th grade.  I am now teaching second-generation students!  My passion and enjoyment has always emerged from working with young people and helping guide them towards their successful future.  I absolutely love ALL children.

            I have two children that are twins and their names are Avery and Ethan.  They are VERY athletically inclined, so they keep me busy!  There is NEVER a dull moment in my world.  I am very proud of them and their success in school.  I enjoy reading, traveling, spending quality time with my family, volunteering, and being a lifetime learner.
