Mrs. Smith

Welcome to 2nd Grade! 
      My name is Jennifer Smith.  This is my first year at Petersburg Primary, but it is my 31st year of teaching.  I taught 2nd and 3rd grade in NC for 30 years.  I graduated from UNC Charlotte with a Bachelor's of Arts Degree in Human Development and Learning. I am certified to teach K-6 in NC and SC.
       I grew up just a few miles from Petersburg Primary in the Wolf Pond community which straddles the NC/SC state line. My husband and I built a home for our children on the same land that my grandparents, and parents owned.  We have 2 grown children, and 1 unruly dog.  Our children live in Raleigh, and Monroe, but the dog insists on living with us.  My husband and I enjoy bike-riding, and I enjoy crafting, and traveling.
     I am excited about teaching in a community that is so close to where I have lived for so long. I look forward to getting to know the community of Pageland, and the students at Petersburg Primary.  My goal is for every member of our classroom to feel a sense of belonging, and to academically grow this year.
