Welcome

Hello and welcome back.  I hope everyone had a wonderful summer.  We will be ready to rock and roll on Monday, August 23rd.  I look forward to seeing all the students in my class.  We are going to have a wonderful year.   

Teacher Information

Hello.  My name is Kimberly Stevens and I am originally from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.  I have lived in North Carolina for the past twenty-two.  While the Panthers are a perfectly good football team, I am and have always been a Steelers fan.  I attended Slippery Rock University in Western PA and later continued my education at the University of South Carolina.  Go Gamecocks!  I will admit, I'm not a fan of hurricanes or the Hurricanes.  I prefer Penguins!  

 I have a degree in Special Education, as well as teaching certificates in three states.  I have been joyful married for thirty-one years and have four wonderful children of my own and have added a beautiful daughter-in-law to our family. I continue to  have a "fur" child and grandfur children.  (One dog and a bunny).

I have been a special education teacher for twenty-seven years.  I feel I can claim a much longer time as I have been working with special populations since the age of twelve.  Teaching special education is not my job, it is my calling.  My goal for your children are for them to reach success even further than they thought possible and be prepared for life to be as independent as possible after graduation.
