I am Melodie Smith and I teach Kindergarten at Weeden Elementary.  I have been teaching for 16 years. I graduated from Bradshaw High School (GO Bruins)! I then went to UNA and earned a degree in Human Enviromental Science.  I then atteneded Athens State University and received a degree in Elementary Education. I have my masters degree and educational specialist degress from UNA as well.  I enjoy working with my students to help them realize and acheive their potential; not only growing academically but socially and emotionally as well.  I love to see the 'lightbulb' moments!
