My name is Stephanie Norris. I am a Johnston County native. I attended Micro Pine Level Elementary (K-2), Johnston Christian Academy (K-5), North Johnston Middle School (6-8), and North Johnston High School (9-12). I graduate with a bachelors degree from the University of Mount Olive. I started my teaching career as a daycare teacher for 9 years. Once completing my associates degree I applied with Johnston County Schools as a teacher assistant. I worked as an assistant for 4 years with students with special needs. After graduating with my 4 year degree I began looking for employment as a lead teacher for students with special needs.  This will be my 3rd year teaching at Four Oaks Elementary and my 4th year as a lead exceptional children's teacher. I love working with children of all ages especially those with special needs. You never truly know what an impact you can have on children's lives until you step into a teaching roll. I have two amazing paraprofessionals that will be working along side me this school year; Mrs. Deanna Massengill and Mrs. Heather Adams. They are a huge asset to our team. I have a wonderful and supportive family. I have a 5 year old son that is my everything. He is the reason I wake up every morning and put my best foot forward. He will begin his school journey this year 2020-2021 in Kindergarten. His father and I are extremely excited for our son to start this new adventure. A little scared as our baby is growing up, but we know he is in good hands.  I look forward to teaching your students this year. No matter what this year entails, we are all in this together and we will prosper.
