Hi, my name is Donna Roberts and I am from Jamaica. This year marks my fifteenth year as an educator. I have taught grades six, four, first grade and kindergarten. I have also tutored eleventh graders to prepare them for their national examination. I currently have a Master's Degree in Teaching and Learning from Saint Mary's University in Minnesota. I am so excited to be given this opportunity to work with you and your child this year. You will not believe how much your child will grow this year. We have an amazing journey to look forward to while working together.

Hello, my name is Summer Holder and I am a kindergarten teacher assistant in Ms. Hayles class. I have one fur baby whose name is Gunner. He is a black lab and our birthdays are 1 day apart. My birthday is February 25^th and his is February 26^th. This is my second year being a teacher assistant. I am studying online with University of North Carolina in Wilmington to be a teacher. I have already earned my associates degree in arts from Sampson Community College in Clinton, NC. My dream is to be a K-2 teacher, which I have wanted to be since I was a little girl. I have lived in Harnett County all of my life and attended Harnett County Schools in elementary school.
