My name is Sara Fite and I was born and raised in Joplin, Missouri, where I currently reside.
I have taught in Carl Junction, Missouri for 20 years. I taught nine of those years as a special education teacher in grades 5th and 6th (resource, class-within-a-class, and co-teaching models were used) and the rest as a regular education teacher in a co-teaching 5th grade class, and 6th grade Language Arts. I have a masters of science in both elementary education and special education. I also hold a certificate in English as a Second Language (ESL) and Project Based Learning (PBL). The past two years I have the honor of teaching 6th grade Social Studies. This by far is my most interesting teaching assignment.
A little known fact about myself is that I do not know how to spell my middle name. My Mother spells it one away and my father spells it another way. When I have to write it out I just play any-meenie-miney-mo.
I have been married to my husband, Steve, for eight years. We share three wonderful children: a 22 year old son who just moved to Lubbock, TX; a 29 year old son, stationed in San Antonio; a daughter, 25, who is a vet technician; a son-in-law who is a police officer and their son Kaison who was born last April.
