All About Mrs. Ailstock
|
This is my 13th year teaching and I am thrilled to be at North Columbus Elementary! This is my fourth year at NCES and I absolutely LOVE it here!
I graduated with a bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education from Columbus State University in 2007. I received my Masters Degree in Media, Instructional Technology in 2014 from the University of West Georgia. I am currently working on my Early Childhood Education Specialist degree. My first three years in the classroom were in Ocala, Florida. I moved back to Columbus in 2010 and worked at Forrest Road Elementary for six years. While at Forrest Road, I was named the 2014 Teacher of the Year. I also placed in the Top Ten Teachers in Muscogee County School District that year. The kind and generous donors of the Muscogee Educational Excellence Foundation (MEEF) gave me to opportunity to attend Project Zero Classroom at Harvard University this summer. It was a great experience and I look forward to incorporating some of these ideas and methods into our classroom! |
My favorite part of teaching is seeing students succeed in every aspect of their life - academically, socially, and emotionally.

I have an Etsy store where I sell teacher signs and other fun things I create. I also love graphic design, building, decorating, making wreaths, and other crafts!

However, he would rather play keep-away than catch!
