All About Mrs. Campbell

My favorite quote I like to share with Middle School age students is:”30 years from now, it won’t matter what shoes you wore, how your hair looked, or the jeans you bought.  What will matter is what you learned and how you used it.”  The poster with this inscription hangs in my room and it is a constant reminder that learning should always be a focus in our lives.  Without it, what else would matter?

The past several years I’ve spent learning the various facets of middle school age students.  I am a Journalism Major from Auburn University who has recently returned to school to earn the qualifications to become a middle school teacher in the areas of English and History.  I’m extremely excited about being in the classroom on a full-time basis as the last 8 years I have been substitute teaching; tending many long-term classrooms.

 I am married with 2 children. My husband is in the military and my oldest child is at The University of Virginia and my youngest child attends Grafton High School.  Our family has lived in various states to include:  Georgia, North Carolina, South Carolina, New Jersey, Kansas, Hawaii and Virginia.

 My teaching philosophy is the belief that every child has the ability to learn  and it is my job as a teacher to find the most suitable mode of learning while providing a safe and encouraging atmosphere for all students.  It is with great anticipation and excitement that I accept each year's new minds and teach them the write better and read with more vigor.

Please feel free to contact me about any quesitons you might have about the learning occurring in my classroom.
