Library

The more that you READ, the more things you will KNOW. The more that you LEARN, the more PLACES you'll GO.

Hello everyone! I love being a Huffman Hawk! I am originally from southern Arkansas and graduated from Hendrix College. I earned my Masters of Education from the University of Arkansas Little Rock and my library certification through UNT. My husband, Jim, and I have two sons Conner (16) and Emerson (12). We also share our home with a wonderful Sheltie named Mac. An interesting fact about me is that I have taught in four different states: Arkansas, Indiana, Missouri and Texas. Yes, I have moved several times! I love my job because I get to share my love of books and reading with all of the Huffman Hawks.
