Amber

Hello all!

My name is Amber Hicks, and I am a 3rd grade teacher at City Park Elementary School in Athens, TN. This is my second year teaching, and I love my job; however, I do not look at what I do as merely a "job". I feel very fortunate to be able to do something I love each and every day. I am happily married and have one step-daughter. I decided to begin my Master's Degree because I feel it is important for me to learn as much as I can for my students. If I show my students that I am always willing to better myself for their success, as well as my own, I can ensure that I am equipping them with all they need to be life-long learners themselves.
