I received my Bachelors in Education with an Early Childhood Endorsement from Middle TN State University in Murfreesboro, TN in May of 1988. I completed my Masters at Berry College in Rome, GA in May of 1992. I began my teaching career in 1989 teaching 3rd grade in Dalton, GA. When my husband was transferred to AL in 1992 I taught at Oak Park Middle School until my second child was born. I re-entered the teaching profession in 2005 here at Hartselle High School. I am happily married to Charles Edde and we have been blessed with three children.
