We would like to congratulate Mrs. Audra Jenkins who was selected as our 2023-2024 Teacher of the Year!
Mrs. Jenkins earned her Bachelor's of Science Degree in Elementary Education from Western Michigan University and has been teaching for over 10 years. Mrs. Jenkins is originally from the Midwest but moved to North Carolina ten years ago to teach in Harnett County Schools. She has been at Coats Elementary for three years. This year she joined the 1st grade team as their English Dual Language Teacher.
She currently lives in Benson with her husband Matthew, and her son Conor, and their two dogs. When she is not in the classroom she may be working at a local restaurant, helping with the Dunn Shrinettes, or enjoying some fun adventures with family and friends!
