Mrs. Watson - 6th Grade

 Meet the Teacher

     Hi, and welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! I am Mrs. Watson, your child's English teacher this year.  Here is just a little bit about myself.

     I grew up and graduated from high school in Henderson, Kentucky.  I then attended the University of Kentucky, where I received a Bachelor's Degree in English Education.  I got my first teaching job in Waltonville, Illinois, where I taught high school for six years.  While teaching there, I attended Southern Illinois University in Carbondale and earned a Master's Degree in Higher Education and Administration. I furthered my education at SIUC in Curriculum and Instruction. 

     I have been married for 29 years this September. My husband and I have two grown daughters. We also have a dog named Coco Chanel.  She is a Shih Tzu Pekingese mix.

     This will be my 32nd year of teaching.  When I am not teaching, I like reading, playing tennis, swimming, and spending time with my family, including my dog.

     I am excited about starting the new school year.  Parents, my goal is to give your child the best education possible, and if I can be of any assistance to you, please feel free to contact me. I hope that everyone has a wonderful school year!
