All About Mrs. Praytor

Family 

My husband, Matt, is an alumnus of Hartselle High School and currently holds the position of ISI teacher and Co-Offensive Coordinator at HHS.

Our daughter, Maggie, graduated from Hartselle High School in 2023 and is presently pursuing a nursing degree at the University of North Alabama.

Background/Education

I was born and raised in Millington, a Navy town just outside of Memphis, Tennessee. As a result, I have been raised to appreciate the music of Elvis, good BBQ, and the Blue Angels.

I obtained a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and Human Development from THE University of Alabama, a Master's degree in School Counseling from Freed Hardeman University, and an EdS in School Counseling from THE University of Alabama.

Over the past 20+ years, I have had the privilege of teaching various grade levels (from PK-12) and have greatly valued the lessons learned from these diverse experiences.

Favorite Things

I am passionate about sports, particularly Memphis Basketball, St. Louis Cardinals baseball, and everything related to Alabama (Roll Tide). However, my absolute favorite is Friday night football. Go Tigers!

I also enjoy reading, spending days at the beach or lake, and cherishing time with family and friends.

Contact Information

My office hours are from 8:00 AM to 3:30 PM. Please feel free to reach out to me to schedule an appointment if needed.
