Hello, I'm Mrs. Vanita Stevens and I’ve been a special education instructional assistant for 15 years. I am originally from Winston-Salem, NC.  I have been a proud Eagle twice in my life, once in high school at East Forsyth High School and in college at North Carolina Central University where I received my Bachelor’s degree in Psychology.  NCCU is also where I met my husband of 26 years, Stanton Stevens. After college, I moved to Tennessee where I started my family with my husband and our three children. Lil’ Stanton who is currently enrolled at Middle Tennessee State University, LaShawnda who is currently enrolled at Tennessee State University, and our youngest Landon who is currently a freshman at Winston-Salem State University.

Things I enjoy, spending time with family and friends, gospel music, old school r&b music, and serving the community through Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Incorporated.

This will be my 3rd year at Yates Mill Elementary and look forward to a great 2022-2023 school year.

My favorite bible verse, Matthew 7:12 In everything, then, do to others as you would have them do to you.  For this is the essence of the Law and the Prophets.
