Mrs. Pilkington
My name is Melissa Pilkington, and I am beginning my 31st year in education! It is a great honor and privilege to teach, nurture and make learning relevant to my children! I love going to school in the mornings because my "job" is one of my joys!
I live in Smithfield (my hometown) with my husband Greg, our youngest daughter, who became engaged in June, and our wonderful puppy Ellie. Our oldest daughter got married last December, and she and her husband are expecting their baby daughter in November! Both of our daughters are nurses! I am truly blessed with my family!
