Mrs. Jessica Harbison - ARI Local Reading Specialist

I have a bachelor's degree from the University of Alabama and a master's degree from the University of Alabama at Birmingham in Early Childhood and Elementary Education. I became a National Board Certified teacher in 2009 in the area of Early Childhood Generalist and recertified in 2018. I have over 23 years of teaching experience and currently am the ARI Local Reading Specialist. I have been married for 14 years and have a 13-year-old son and a 6 year-old daughter. I love working with the students and teachers and I am constantly looking for better ways to improve my professional development and strategies for engaging the kiddos!
