This will be my thirteenth year teaching fourth grade at Center Hill. I love teaching fourth grade and I hope you love fourth grade as much as I do! I graduated high school from Briarcrest Christian School. I have a bachelor of science degree in Secondary Education with endorsements in Biology and General Science, as well as an Elementary Education endorsement from the University of Memphis.

My husband and I live in Olive Branch and have three sons, Andy Matthew, and Alec. Andy is a mechanical engineer form Mississippi State. Matthew graduated from the University of Memphis and is a geometry teacher at Brighton High School, and Alec is studying chemical engineering at the University of Arkansas. We also have tow dogs and a cat. My husband and I are the proud grandparents of two year old Quinn!

Welcome to 4th Grade!

Hi! My name is Laura Morris and I am going to be your fourth grade teacher for the 2020-2021 year. I am so excited about the upcoming school year! 

Communication:

We will be using school status this year. Save the number I contacted you from at the beginning of the year. This is the number you can use to stay in contact with me throughout the year.

Distance Learning (VIP):

This is a new concept for everyone, and I'm excited to be on this new journey with you. We will be using the Schoology as the online platform for distance learning. Please look at the links below under the yellow "Distance Learning" heading. These links will give you directions about how to use Schoology.

Parents, please feel free to e-mail or text me at anytime with questions or concerns. NO one know your child better than you, so let me know anything important that might help your child achieve their full potential. I miss you bunches and hope to see you soon!
