As a child, I had the honor of growing up here in Putnam County in the
small "mountain" town of Monterey. I attended Monterey High School where I was
very active in academics and athletics! After graduating from MHS, I attended
Tennessee Tech University where I received my B.S. Degree in Elementary
Education in 1998. While taking classes at Tech, I worked as a substitute
teacher, as well as, an activity instructor for the S.A.C. programs at
Northeast Elementary and Capshaw School. My first five years of teaching
experience were in Shelby County, in the city of Bartlett where I taught 4th
grade. Upon the birth of our daughter, Anna Beth, my husband Jason and I
chose to move back to Cookeville, to raise her and our latest addition, Audrey
Katherine, with the same small town values that we both believed in. Since
that time, I have taught here at Capshaw School and loved EVERY minute! I
feel blessed to be able to serve the children, parents, and the people of the
community that I call home!
We the faculty, parents, and students of Capshaw will work together in a safe
and nurturing environment to ensure the development of a quality education and
responsible citizenship.
• We believe in the school as a community connected by shared goals and sense
of purpose.
• We believe that learning is a lifelong process.
• We believe that all students learn in different ways and that instruction
should be presented to support the learning styles of the students.
• We believe that parents and teachers share the responsibility to help
children reach their potential of becoming informed citizens.
• We believe that a safe positive environment is essential in encouraging
growth and development.
