Inspired Education is the product of needing a space to collect my thoughts on various educational and noneducational issues.

 About me

 

My name is Stacey and I'm a wife.mother.teacher in that order.  I love my family and my job.  I also enjoy reading and I'm dabbling in writing.  I have two fabulous fur-kids and one tiny human. I teach high school English in a small town not too far from where I grew up.  I am involved in my church and community.
