My name is Jacie Reagan. I was born and grew up in Northwest Indiana. My parents are from West Tennessee which I also claim as home. I wanted to be a teacher for as long as I can remember. My maternal grandmother and aunt were teachers.
I earned my Bachelor’s degree from Andrews University in Berrien Springs, Michigan. My Bachelor’s degree is in Elementary Education and Language Arts. I have a Master’s degree in Reading from Grand Valley State University in Allendale, Michigan. I also have Seventh-day Adventist denominational certification from the Lake Union Conference of Seventh-day Adventists.
I’ve taught for 20 years. My elementary teaching experience includes teaching in Seventh-day Adventist multi-grade schools where I was teacher, principal, etc….; a charter school 1st-grade classroom for several years and at the college level. I’ve taught at-risk students with special education teachers, an occupational therapist, and a social worker. Currently, I am teaching 6th grade and am the Vice-Principal.
I endeavor to create a Christ-centered classroom where students can learn more about Jesus and how to have a relationship with Him. I believe the spiritual lessons are VERY important and can be taught in every subject.
In my classroom, I like to use a variety of teaching strategies – cooperative learning, projects, and discussions. I strive to make my classroom a safe place for all students to share information, ask questions and learn. It is my expectation that every student becomes involved in their learning and push themselves to grow as a student and as an individual.
I love to read, hike, cook, sew, do crafts, and spend time with my grandchildren.
My goal is to be an example and leader for our Savior, Jesus Christ, and encourage my students to have a relationship with Jesus and do their very best in all they set out to do.
My husband and I have 8 children and 22 grandchildren living in Michigan, North Carolina, Illinois, and Florida. Two of our children are in the Army. One will be stationed in Germany this summer.
