During the 2023-2024 school year, we will highlight our AMAZING Martinsville District Staff! Each one of our staff members chose education as a career for a reason and we've asked them to walk down memory lane and "REMEMBER YOUR WHY"...enjoy this story about Grace McNeil who has been working in 3rd grade alongside the retiring Sheila Shotts this year…
Grace McNeil is attending Grand Canyon University. She currently has her bachelor’s degree and is finishing her student teaching at MES.
Miss McNeil loves being a part of the same small school community she graduated from and says she has a “love for children”, which was one of the reasons she chose to pursue education. She said that she most enjoys “getting to know students and bringing a smile to their day.” She added, “seeing students who have struggled in the past who are getting perfects on their spelling has been a highlight...both students and parents light up every Friday in excitement!”
Thank you Miss McNeil for helping our students learn to love spelling! We are thankful for your excitement about working at MES!
