I am very excited to be working with your child this year. I would like to take this opportunity to introduce my family and myself to you.
I grew up in Harrison where my parents, John and Bennie Carlton, owned and operated the restaurant, Daisy Queen. I graduated from Harrison High School, then moved to Conway where I graduated from the University of Central Arkansas. I moved back to Harrison and began teaching kindergarten at Eagle Heights. I transferred to Forest Heights when my children started school. This will be my 28th year of teaching. I have taught kindergarten, first, second, and fourth grades.
I have been married to Dean Billups for 26 years. He is employed by FedEx Freight. We have two children. Allie is 21 years old and attends the University of Arkansas at Fort Smith. Hayden is 16 years old and in the 11th grade at Harrison High School.
Now you know a little about my family. I can’t wait to get to know you and your family. I strongly believe that we need to build a team to make your child the BEST he/she can be!
