My name is Sarah Cooper, and I am currently a high school assistant principal whose heart and soul will forever remain in the classroom and with classroom teachers. Before moving to administration, I was a 5th grade ELA and Social Studies teacher in East Tennessee. I also previously taught 2nd grade in a self-contained classroom. I have a Doctoral degree in Curriculum & Instruction and am looking forward to continuing the work that I started with my dissertation research.

I truly believe in our education profession, enjoy helping young learners on their educational journeys, and collaborating with educators from all over the world. From technology/social media to classroom best practices-teaching is my passion, and I am honored to share and spread this passion with other educators. It has become my mission to help motivate, encourage, lead and inspire educators.

This space started in 2013 as a way for me to document my journey as an educator, and I have used the content here as a way to reflect on great teaching moments and ideas as well as learn from those teaching practices that needed work and revamping. This space will always be a work in progress and a way for me to grow as a professional and individual.
