Mrs. Amy Sheets
With 19 years of teaching under my belt, I have finally found my home at HES. The year-round schedule suits my reflective personality and it allows me to constantly grow and recharge.
I began my career as a Spanish teacher at McDougle Middle School (where my husband is currently the awesome 6th grade counselor). After a few years as a counselor myself in Durham, I yearned to return to the classroom and landed a job at HES. This will be my 13th year at HES, my 11th year as a classroom teacher and my 6th year as a 2nd grade teacher. I love teaching 6-8 year olds; they are curious, filled with joy, creative, and ALWAYS up for a really good story! Reading Roald Dahl, Dr. Seuss, Mo Willems, and Kate DiCamillo in class is a favorite activity of mine. |
My family and I love spending time together outdoors, hiking, and reading. My daughter, Mia is a second grader this year!

Winning Teacher of the Year for HES in 2018 was such an amazing honor, especially with the support of our awesome Coach Walker!
