8th Grade Science
About Stacie
My Story
I grew up in Milledgeville and attended Ga. College & State University where I received my Batchelor’s and Master’s in Science. I have worked in Environmental Health at Central State Hospital and Ga. Southern University. After having my children, I was called to be a teacher. I attended Lagrange College and received my Master’s in teaching Science. While there, I was awarded "Outstanding Field Experience".​ My passions are my family, teaching, running, and Les Mills group fitness.

My Teaching Philosophy
As a teacher, I am always looking for new ways to engage my students. Technology and problem based learning is imperative in the 21st century classroom. I try to incorporate these into my daily lessons.
Teaching is all about respect. I respect my students and they respect me. I love them as if they were my own. I believe in each child, and I care about their well being.
I also see myself as more of a facilitator of learning. Students are responsible for their own education. I am there to guide them and lead them. They have to be willing to learn and take chances. One of the greatest gifts of teaching is watching a child experience success. I love saying, "See! I told you that you could do it!!"
