Meet Ms. Crockett!

     Hi!  I’m Ms. Crockett, and I welcome you to our class!  I think I have

the best job in the world. I am looking forward to a great year of getting

to know you and helping you to learn more about this great and challenging

language of ours.   We will all work together to become better

communicators.  

      I want to share a little about myself to help you get to know me a

little better. As the year progresses, I look forward to getting to know

you all much better too. I grew up in Albany, Georgia, where my dear

Mom and my brother and his family still live. My husband, Michael,

is a real estate professional, and he and I live here in Marietta

with our youngest, Colleen, who will begin her study of Commercial

Photography this year at North Georgia Technical College.

 Our middle daughter, Bess, graduated from Armstrong

Atlantic State University in Savannah with a degree in theater

performance and is pursuing her acting career. Our oldest, Aaron,

graduated  from UGA, is a sales consultant

for McKesson Corporation and now lives with his bride Kim,  our

new precious grandbaby Katie, and their great golden retriever Maggie

 in Acworth.

     We all adore our fifteen year old mixed breed terrier dog, Luckie,

one of the cutest dogs in the world!  Our family loves travel, music,

swimming, and all kinds of games. 

     I graduated from Valdosta State College with  degrees in English 

and English Education and earned my M.Ed. in English Education from 

UGA. (Go DAWGS! ) I've taught for 24(!) years and transferred to 

Hightower four years ago from East Cobb Middle School.  I am SO 

happy to have joined the wonderfully warm Hightower family.  I’ve always 

known that I wanted to be a teacher and consider it to be both a blessing 

and  a great responsibility. 

I believe, among other things, that...

   ...little things mean a lot...

...music, books, and art feed our minds, bodies, and spirits...

...first things should be first...

...my dog Luckie and my students are angels on this earth...

...things go better with laughter...and dark chocolate covered almonds...

...we reap what we sow...

...life is as fun as we make it...

…and that we’ll make this year fun and successful!!
