Hello!  My name is Cindy Kepley and I am relatively new to McLeansville Elementary School. I have been teaching in the Exceptional Children's Department since 2000. I began my journey teaching students with disabilities in middle school immediately after graduating from Appalachian State in May 2000. I went back to school in 2007 and received my Med. in Special Education with an Advance Licensure in Reading Specialty in 2010. I have taught students with disabilities across the continuum in Kindergarten through 8th grade. I have a passion for my students and work daily to ensure they succeed in all areas and leave the classroom confident in their abilities in the educational environment and beyond. I want to provide my students with the support they need to accomplish their goals and to be the best "them" they can be. I look forward to many more years working with the exceptional children's population.

This year, I have had the opportunity to have a second set of hands in my classroom. I have paired with UNCG and have had an intern/student teacher in my class. Sarah Foster is a senior this year and is an invaluable resource to our school and students. She is with us daily and works hands on with all students in our classroom. She brings a great deal of knowledge in 21st century learning and using tools she has learned in her coursework to teach our students. Welcome Sarah!
