Welcome to Mrs. Jackson's Class. I am so excited to begin this year long journey with you! We have so many exciting and fun things planned for you this year. I would like to share a little about myself with you. I have been married for 20 years to my husband Rusty and we have two boys, Nathan (5th grade) and Patrick (9th grade). I enjoy spending time with friends and family, singing and dancing, and reading.
I have lived in Columbia since I was 10. I myself am a product of Richland 2 having attended North Springs Elementary, E.L. Wright Middle and Spring Valley High. I graduated from Francis Marion University in 1995, and received National Board Certification in November 2015, I feel as though teaching is my mission in life. I love spending my days growing the minds of my students, building relationships with them, loving them unconditionally, and teaching them the importance of good citizenship. My biggest downfall as an educator is the fact that I fall in love with my students every year, and find it super hard to let them go when our time together has come to an end. When my previous students stop by to say hello it warms my heart. My goal is to make a positive impression on the lives of the children I serve. I look forward to all this year has to offer and learning and growing together.
