I grew up in Olive Branch and attended DeSoto County Schools until college. When I graduated from Olive Branch High School, I moved to Oxford to attend the University of Mississippi. (Go Rebels, Go!!) I majored in Elementary Education with reading and history as my focus areas. I student taught in fourth grade here at P.H.E.S. and discovered firsthand how wonderful and special our school is. I taught third grade for eight years, and this will be my fifth year teaching Kindergarten! I know it is going to be a blast!

          Mr. Bryan Stotts and I have been married for twelve years, and we have a sweet little boy named Beckett and a precious little girl named Blair. Beckett is seven years old (eight years old in December!) and will be starting second grade this year! Blair is three years old. She will celebrate her fourth birthday in February. 

          This year is going to be full of excitement, and I’m so glad we get to share it together! Don’t be nervous…we are going to have TONS of FUN! I am looking forward to an AWESOME year!
