My name is Whitney Wakefield and I am excited to be a 6th grade teacher at Hartselle Intermediate School.  I have a passion for kids and teaching and can't wait to see all my students learn this year!  

I grew up down the road in Decatur, Alabama.  After graduating from Decatur High School, I went to the University of North Alabama where I received a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education.  From there I attend the University of West Alabama and received a Masters in School Counseling.

My husband and I met in college at UNA.  He is also an educator and coach.  We live in Priceville with our daughter Olivia.
