Meet the Teacher!

My name is Sarah Gordon. I grew up in Columbus, GA where I graduated from Columbus High School. From there, I moved to Tuscaloosa, AL where I graduated from The University of Alabama (Roll Tide!) with a Bachelors Degree in Elementary Education (K-6). This is my second year of teaching, and I can't imagine a better place to be than Oliver! I am currently in the process of obtaining my M.Ed at Troy University. I love watching football, traveling, being outdoors, and hanging with my dog, Lulu. My goal as an educator is to instill a lifelong passion of learning in your child by creating a nurturing learning environment where they can thrive. Teaching is truly a passion of mine, and I am thrilled to be your child's teacher this year!
