All About Me

Hello! My name is Jessica Francis.

I am 27 years old and I currently live in Waterford. I love camping, reading all kinds of books, fostering dogs, running, and teaching color guard. I actually have traveled all over the country with a group of young men and women doing over 50 performances per summer, for the past 9 years.

 

I went to Michigan State University for my undergraduate degree in Elementary Education where I focused in Social Studies and Geography. In 2009, I interned in Flint in the fourth grade. It was an eye-opening experience that kept me hungry for more! In 2010, I got my first teaching job at Charyl Stockwell Academy in Howell where I teach first and second grade. I have been at this position for the past 5 years. There are so many different facets to helping and encouraging a struggling reader and writer. Having seen this first hand with my students, it has driven me to go back to Michigan State for my Master’s of Arts in Education with a focus in Literacy.
