My name is Tina Sanford, and I teach a 4th/5th grade looping class. My class is self-contained, so I teach ALL subjects. This is my 5th year at GUES and my 5th year as a teacher. Before becoming a looping teacher I taught 4th/5th multiage. I have a business degree and an education degree from the University of Mississippi. I am married to Jeff Sanford, and we have one daughter, Claire, who is in the 7th grade.
Classroom Philosophy:
In my classroom, the "mission" lasts for two years. During this time, students will work toward becoming more responsible, independent, and confident. At the end of our time together, my goal is to see growth in all of these areas, and to also have a room full of students who are ready for middle school.
