Class of 2009-2010
My name is Sarah Dunn. I was born and raised in Seymour and attended Sevier County Schools from kindergarten through high school. I like spending time with family and friends, traveling, reading, and I LOVE cats (I have 4!). I am in my third year teaching and feel blessed to be teaching kindergarten and first grade at Pi Beta Phi. The children say the funniest things, and there truly is never a dull moment!  I believe that children learn best in a positive environment with lots of encouragement; this is why you will often see me with a smile on my face.  I also believe that childen can learn a lot from each other.  I value cooperative learning and love to see children learning from one another.



I graduated from the University of Tennessee in December of 2005 with my Bachelor of Science in Child Development. I went on to complete my Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education (also from UT) in May 2007.  I am currently working towards my Educational Specialist Degree at Lincoln Memorial University.
