Mrs. Beth Price
This is my 28th year in education in North Carolina. After graduating from East Carolina University, I worked as an elementary teacher for 14 years. I then decided that middle school was where I really wanted to be. I taught language arts, science, and social studies in middle school for 10 years. Five years ago I accepted the position as the Curriculum Coach for Smithfield Middle. Now, I am serving as the IB Coordinator for Smithfield Middle. I love my job! I get to work with all subjects, all teachers, and all students. It is so much fun!
I also have my Masters in Education from East Carolina University and a National Board Certification. Learning for me is a natural part of being in education.
