Hi! My name is Mrs. Long and I grew up in Birmingham, Alabama. I graduated from The University of Alabama-Birmingham in 2007 and earned my Early/Elementary Childhood Education Degree. Also, I have a Master’s Degree in Special Education. This is my fourth year teaching. I previously taught grades 3, 2 and 1st grade. I love teaching any grades, because I learned so many interesting facts about my students. I am elated to get this year started and learn more about my great students and parents. We will have a great year of teaching and learning. My favorite quote by Aristotle, " Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all." Aristotle
