Kindergarten - Blum, Melissa

My name is Melissa Blum, and I live in McLeansville.  This is my 7th year teaching kindergarten at Highland Elementary.  There is nothing like a kindergarten classroom!  Students grow so much from the first day until the last day, physically and socially, as well as academically.  It is an amazing transformation to witness.  I graduated with high honors in 2012 from Guilford College, where I double majored in Elementary Education and Psychology.  I am currently in graduate school at UNCG working on my Master's Degree in Special Education.  I have two boys of my own:  Jackson is in 8th grade and Carter is in 7th grade.  I hope to build a partnership between our staff and our families where we all work together for our students.  I look forward to a wonderful year full of fun and learning!
