Spotlight on teachers! Introducing Mrs. Angela Penrod.
Hi all! I am special education teacher at Meigs North. I graduated from Tennessee Wesleyan University in 2019 and am currently pursuing my masters degree in special education from TWU. My husband and I have been married for 2.5 years.
I chose to become a special education teacher because I enjoy working with students from diverse backgrounds, helping them to succeed and encouraging them in their academic careers.
When not working on my masters degree, I enjoy traveling, reading and spending time with friends and our cats.
Families of kindergarteners: Books are coming to your mailbox! Our school is participating in @Governor’s Early Literacy Foundation’s K-3 Home Library program. Get ready for a reading adventure!

Spotlight on teachers! Introducing Ms. Kara Scott.
The bus for the Boys and Girls Club will begin running after school on Monday, August 12, 2024. In order for your child to go the the B/G Club on that bus, you must first turn in paperwork and be approved at the Club. The Club then sends a list of approved students to the school. Thanks. JJ
Spotlight on teachers! Introducing Mrs. Leslie Burger.
My name is Leslie Burger. I am married to my wonderful husband, Larry. We have one beautiful daughter, Trista. We enjoy hiking and have recently been section hiking the Appalachian Trail (with Ms. Kara Scott). I chose to become a teacher because I had a BAD teacher. She made me realize that I could do it better! I never want to make a child feel unimportant or not smart, and I knew this was my calling! I'm looking forward to another school year!
Spotlight on our teachers! Introducing Izamarie Martinez.
My name is Izamarie Martinez, and I teach 2nd grade at MNE. This is my fourth year teaching, and I am grateful to be able to work alongside the MNE staff to help students grow and flourish during their early years of life.
Growing up, I have always had a passion for education. However, I didn't know what my calling truly was until I taught a Kindergarten class through Junior Achievement. Through my teaching, I focus on delivering healthy cultures of learning in which students are inspired and confident in their abilities. I believe that if children can establish a strong foundation in their learning at an early age, they are better equipped for the future.
Outside of the classroom, I have been happily married for almost an entire year. I love spending quality time with my spouse and my beloved dogs. I love to explore new destinations and cultures along with being able to try new foods. In everything I do, I strive to be an avid learner, constantly seeking new knowledge and experiences to bring back to both personal and professional endeavors.
Reminder about the Meigs North car rider line. 1. It starts at 3:00. Getting there early creates traffic and safety issues. 2. There are only 2 lanes, not 3. If you check a student out late in the day, please park in the lower lot and walk to the office. Otherwise, you may get stuck in traffic. Thanks. JJ
Spotlight on our teachers! Introducing Mrs. Reagan Cash.
I am from Dawsonville, Ga. I went to Lee and graduated in 2019 and then went on to finish my MAT in 2024. I have experience teaching science, kindergarten, and second grade but Kindergarten is my favorite! My husband and I have been married for 4.5 years and enjoy cooking and hiking! I love spending my free time swimming and with my kitty cats!
Meigs North CAR RIDERS START AT 3:00. PLEASE DO NOT GET HERE EARLY. IT BLOCKS TRAFFIC ON THE HIGHWAY AND CAUSES A SAFETY CONCERN. Thanks. JJ
Meigs North car riders experiences a high volume of traffic today causing the line to operate slower than usual. Please be patient with the process as we train staff and student how to safely load vehicles. Thanks. JJ
Meigs North bus riders may be getting dropped just a little bit later than usual this afternoon. We were about 15 minutes late leaving campus trying to ensure that all students got on the right bus. Thanks. JJ
