Hello! My name is Mary Virginia Holman and I will be teaching kindergarten this year at Walter Jackson. I am a first-year teacher, but I did my teaching internship this past year at WJ and I am so excited to be an official member of the WJ team. I am from Decatur, and I grew up in the Decatur City School System. I graduated from Athens State University with a degree in elementary education. When I am not teaching and working with students, I enjoy cooking, reading, and taking my dogs on long walks. I am so excited for the fun and learning this school year will bring!
It’s almost time to break ground on the 2021-22 school year!
