MARLOW

My name is Sherri Young.  I am married to Mark Young, the Alternative Education teacher in Marlow. We have been married for 27 years. We have two children, a daughter, Codi Young, who is a junior at Cameron University and a son, Seth Young, who is a senior at Marlow High School.  I serve, along with my husband Mark, as the Children's Ministry Leaders at Chisholm Trail Church of Christ.  I graduated  in 1992 from Tarleton State University in Stephenville, Texas.  I am a  ATM fan!!! 

My teaching career began in a very small school in Palo Pinto, Tx., where I taught first grade for seven years.  Since, I built and started a private Pre-School, Kiddie Kollege.  I taught at Kiddie Kollege for 6 years before moving to Oklahoma.  I began teaching in Marlow as a third grade teacher in 2009.  The next year I was asked to teach first grade and did so for 4 years.  The past two years I have taught Pre-K, and have to say this is the age for me! I love teaching the younger children.  It is my job to instill in these little guys that school is fun.  I think that if I can help them learn to love school at the earliest age that it will stick with them for a lifetime.  

After taking a brief pause  from teaching, I quickly learned that roads take us to many different places and different directions, but when you love what you do, you will return.  I hope in this journey of life,  the children I teach will learn  something more precious than reading, math or spelling.  I hope they learn what it means to be an Outlaw and that they are.......loved.

Carla Samples is my aide, and I have to say that she keeps our classroom running effeciently!  She is wonderful and I could not do my job without her.  Not only is she the best aide ever, she is my friend.

Together, we will have an amazing year!
