Hi, Simkins Sharks!  My name is Ms. Harrelson, and I'm looking forward to a super year exploring STEM together.  STEM stands for Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math.  I cannot wait to see how much you learn and grow this year!

               I grew up in the small town of Whiteville, NC (about an hour from Wilmington, NC), and I attended the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, where I received my degree in education.  When I am not teaching, I enjoy reading (especially mysteries!), taking ice skating lessons, and exploring in nature.  I'm looking forward to getting to know each of you more, too!
