Hello Everyone, 

Welcome to the 2022-23 school year! My name is Ms. Long and this is my second year here at Pickett Elementary & second year in 3rd grade. This is my third year teaching as I have previously taught grades 3 and 4. I am also a former assistant childcare teacher of over five years before beginning my teaching career in public schools. In Dec. 2019 I became a graduate of UNC Pembroke (Go Braves!) with a B.S in Elementary Education (K-6) & a concentration in English. I enjoy learning new things & sharing that love for learning with those around me. I believe every child is capable of learning. I am very excited about all that we will learn and accomplish this year in 3rd grade! Ready, Set, Grow!
