Mrs. Tara Hamlett
I AM ORIGINALLY FROM BIRMINGHAM, ALABAMA, BUT HARTSELLE HAS BEEN MY HOME SINCE 1990. AFTER I GRADUATED FROM ATHENS STATE IN 1992 WITH A SPECIAL EDUCATION DEGREE, I GOT MY FIRST TEACHING JOB AT HARTSELLE HIGH SCHOOL. IN 1997 I TRANSFERRED TO F.E. BURLESON ELEMENTARY AS A RESOURCE TEACHER UNTIL 2017. AFTER 25 YEARS OF BEING IN THE CLASSROOM, I DECIDED TO CHANGE CAREERS. NOW I AM THE PSYCHOMETRIST FOR THE SCHOOL DISTRICT, SO I'VE MOVED FROM "TEACHING" CHILDREN TO "TESTING" CHILDREN, AND I LOVE IT.
I HAVE BEEN MARRIED TO KEVIN HAMLETT (HARTSELLE ALUMNI) FOR 31 YEARS AND WE HAVE THREE CHILDREN (ZANE, KYLE, AND KENZIE). I ENJOY SPENDING TIME WITH MY FAMILY AND OUR DOG, QUINCY, READING PSYCHOLOGICAL THRILLER BOOKS, WATCHING MY SHOWS (TOO MANY TO NAME), AND ALABAMA FOOTBALL. I AM ALSO AN ACTIVE MEMBER OF HARTSELLE CHURCH OF CHRIST.
