=** PERSONAL: **=

I am married to Michael Hardee of Whiteville, North Carolina. Michael is a truck driver by profession. He is disabled from a car accident that was caused by a person on their cell phone. He currently drives a school bus.

I have one step-daughter -- Michele Mendenhall-Colvin -- she has a new baby named Remington Gage.

I have one past son-in-law (whom we still consider our family) -- Justin Colvin -- is an electrician for Union Pacific RR. He is now married to Taylor Colvin.

We have two grandchildren between Justin and Michele -- Madyson (Eight) and Jaxon (Five)

I grew up in Marianna Arkansas and graduated from there in 1977.

My mother passed away on January 25, 2011 -- She was 91 years old. She moved from Marianna to Hot Springs where she was living in a retirement facility. She was a school teacher until the age of 78. She was also a Cosmetologist (owned her own beauty shop and ran it while teaching), Real Estate Broker, and still owned up to 21 rental properties at one time. My father died when I was five. He was a school teacher, football and basketball coach, principal, and superintendent of public schools. My mother was in the Navy and my father was in the Army Air Force (all one branch at that time). They met in Washington DC and married there.

Education has always been a major part of my home life.

My sister lives in Gainesville Florida. She is a teacher. She is married and her husband is retired from the US government. She has three children (two girls and a boy) that are all teachers. They are all married and all have children.

= PHILOSOPHY OF EDUCATION: =

I believe that every student, regardless of gender, race, and culture, has a right to an education and to learn how to become a productive member of society. I believe that an effective teacher is not only one that has knowledge and a great understanding of their subject matter, but one that can also touch the life of each student by their excitement and passion for teaching. I believe an administrator is the leader and role model for the school environment. They enhance student learning with their excitement, dedication for education, and conscious effort to keep students well-being first.
