🚨🐾 New Bulldog Alert! Please welcome Jeanette Atkinson to the ESE department! She says "I have a B.A. in Political Science from the University of Texas of the Permian Basin, a B.S.E. from Missouri Southern State University, an M.A. in Adult Education & Training, an M.S.E in Educational Diagnostician from Northwest Missouri State University, and an Ed.S. in Educational Leadership from Northwest Missouri State. University. My first day of teaching was 9/11. As if that didn't prepare me enough for learning to deal with the unexpected, I returned to teaching from a hiatus to homeschool for the 2019-2020 school year. I moved to Florida from Missouri two days before the start of that last school year. I learned so much during my year at Stuart Middle School and I am even more excited to learn more at the high school level at South Fork. During my tenure of teaching, I have taught Special Education in elementary, middle, and high school. I have taught in a CWC classroom, CT classroom, Resource, and self-contained. Every one has been a different experience and I have enjoyed them all."

🚨🐾 Returning Bulldog Alert! Jennifer Inostroza has been a teacher for 24 years. Starting in Jersey City, where she grew up, at schools that she went to as a child. After moving to Woodbridge and starting a family, she transferred to teaching there for 16 of her 24 years.

She says "We are a Bulldog family!" Welcome back! 🐾
