Hi, my name is Debbie Umpleby.  I have been back to teaching for 2 1/2 years.  I have taught 4th, 3rd, and 1st grade.  My true passion is in first grade.  I love watching my students grow and become successful readers and writers.  I have 4 kids-3 girls and 1 boy-18,16, 14, and 12.  I have been a Girl Scout Leader for 10 years.  In my spare time I like to swim, hike, watch movies and spend time with my family.
