Hey ya'll! My name is Ms. Hale and I’m so excited to have your child in my 3rd Grade class this year. Here is a little bit you may want to know about me. I received my bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education from the University of North Alabama and this is my 9th year teaching here at Ridgecrest Elementary and my 10th year teaching. I love children, animals, and especially eating. I’ve worked at an ice cream store and a day care when I was young. I have a 70lb puppy, who’s too big to be called a puppy, but she thinks she is one. I live out in the country, so I apologize for the accent. If I need to repeat anything, please let me know. I'm married to a lovable giant to match our lovable puppy and have two wonderful children; a boy and a girl.

We are going to have a great year! Remember though, 3rd grade is a year for responsibilities, laptops, and a lot of new material. Please make sure your child stays on top of things so we can learn to be organized and learn a lot. Please feel free to help your child with their work and if you are lost yourself, please reach out to me and we can work together to get him or her on track.
