Meet the Teacher

Mrs. Amy Price

Hello, my name is Amy Price and this is my 3rd year as a Pre-K teacher at Lillington Shawtown Elementary.  I have been with Harnett County Schools for eighteen years. I have served as a technology facilitator, a teacher assistant for 1st and 2nd grades, a teacher assistant in a BED classroom, a bus driver for both elementary and high schools, and a kindergarten teacher.

Before working for Harnett county, I worked as an Early Childcare Educator. I earned my Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education from UNC Greensboro and graduated with honors in 2016. I am also currently enrolled and working on my masters degree. I am married and have a BIG, blended family! We have a total of nine children between us, as well as seven grandsons and four granddaughters. I have lived in Lillington, NC for about thirty years, however, I was raised in Sanford, NC so I have family in Lee and Harnett counties. 

Education is my passion and I knew at the age of seven that I wanted to be a teacher. It has been my life long goal/dream to become a teacher. I love to teach children and to see them grow and develop as they learn new things. To see life through the eyes of a child is a beautiful thing and it is different every day. I am so excited to teach Pre-K!
