1st Grade Teacher

Hello and Welcome to our National Blue Ribbon School!

My name is Carrie Dixon and I will be your child’s first grade teacher.  I am from the great state of Florida where the Florida Gators hail. I graduate from Angelo State University in San Angelo, Texas with my Bachelor’s degree.  I continued my education by getting my Master’s degree in Education with a Specialization in Reading and Literacy from Walden University; where I graduated Sigma Cum Laude.

I have a real passion for teaching that started when I was only 5 years old. My passion and desire to be a teacher never wavered. This is my 7th year in 1st grade at Crestview Elementary and my 12^th year as a teacher.

In 1st grade, we will be learning how to read, and my goal is to instill a love of reading in all of my students. A love that expands to all genres. We will also be exploring all the other standard subjects and developing a vast knowledge base.  I encourage you to ask them to "share" what they are learning with you.

My goal is to involve everyone in the learning environment.  I want you to know I am always available to talk to you. Feel free to reach me via e-mail, phone, or Class DOJO.
