Meet Mrs. Crotts  

  

Hello!  My name is Katie Crotts.  I am one of three kindergarten 
teachers at
South Salem Elementary School in Salem, Virginia.  
The school year 2011-2012 is my twelfth year teaching at South Salem.          
I also taught for one year at East Salem Elementary teaching Title I reading 
and math. 
 

I was born in Roanoke, Virginia and have lived in this
area my whole life!  I attended East Salem, Andrew Lewis, 
and Salem High.  I received my BA degree from
Roanoke College with a major in Sociology.  I am
certified to to teach grades NK-8. 
I also have a
master's degree in instruction from UVA.

I thoroughly love teaching.  I have always known that teaching
was meant for me!  When I'm not teaching, I enjoy quilting,
reading, gardening, and spending time with friends and family. 
I have a daughter named Delaney.  I have one gray cat named Clyde,
a miniature black and tan dachshund named Tallulah, and a miniature red
piebald dachshund named Clementine. (click here for photos of my babies)
