Hello, my name is Susan Farmer. I have taught first grade for many years here at Jackson.  I graduated high school from Gladewater High School. I continued my education at The University of Texas at Tyler where I obtained my bachelor’s degree in Interdisciplinary Studies.

I have a passion for teaching students to read.  In my opinion, there is no greater joy than to see the light come on in a first grader's eyes the first time the connection between spoken language and print is made.  I have wanted to teach since I was a child, and I am thrilled to be living that dream with the best students in the world and in the best school in the world!

My goal for this school year is to help all students succeed.
