Hello Yates Mill Families!  My name is Emily Shaw and I am a Second Grade Teacher here at YMES.  I am looking forward to my 16th year teaching!!

 

Growing up I lived in South and North Carolina and still have family residing in both. I come from a family of teachers and knew early on that working with children was a passion of my own. I am an alumnus of UNC (Go Heels!) where I received my bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. After graduating from UNC, I moved to Raleigh, where I began working at Yates Mill. My husband and I have two sons, David (5 - kindergarten!) and Leighton (2). Every day I strive to instill a love of learning in all of my students.🐸 I love being a part of the Yates Mill family and look forward to sharing this special place with you! Let’s have a great school year!

 

~A few of my favorite things: family time, being outside, traveling with friends, the beach, the TARHEELS, reading, Reese's, Diet Coke, Starbucks and Target~
