About YourTeacher

dhamrick@saintraphael.org

Hello! I am Debbie Hamrick and it is my privilege to be your child's first 
grade teacher this year. I have a bachelors of Science degree in Education 
from Radford University in Virginia. I have been teaching first grade at St. 
Raphael's for 12 years. Nine of those years were half day positions, teaching 
the Reading and Language Arts curriculum. This allowed me to spend more time 
with my husband Don, and my two boys Geoff and Chris. Now that they are both 
attending college, I am so excited to be back in the classroom as a full time 
teacher. I truly love being with young children and watching them grow both 
academically and spiritually. I have also taught Kindergarten at St. Pius X 
Catholic School in Greensboro. In my free time, I like to cook, decorate, 
play with my dog Ali, and visit the beach at Emerald Isle. It is my home away 
from Raleigh....I spent time there this summer; I am all relaxed and 
expecting to have a fantastic school year!
