About Me Stephanie Day

Stephanie Day

Stephanie Day Stephens, like a bright, Sunny Day Shinning!

Professionally, in this session, my goals are to gain confidence in two ways: increasing my technological experiences and applying data. To achieve this, I will recall my experiences gained through my minor statical program at KSU in my undergraduate studies that took me to Hangzhou, China, where I completed research through a course in medical epidemiology.

My Interest of Late Involved All Things Wedding

We had the dream wedding and honeymoon that we wished and worked for, starting when we said, "I do," on Monday, February 12, 2024. Thank you for all your well wishes last session. I wanted to share some of our weddings on the Allure of the Seas Cruise Ship and our honeymoon in Cayo Levantado, Dominican Republic.

Travel and Family are my happy places!

I returned to Cobb County in the Fall of 2018 and taught at my alma mater. I grew up at Lassiter, literally! I took my first steps in the old gym beside my dad as he coached and taught a full legacy at LHS. He retired the year before I started teaching.

My mom always encouraged me to be anything but a teacher. She knows I have so many talents that could make much more money. Dr. Rushton told me to take just ONE of his graduate courses in the new Masters in the Arts of Teaching... I was hooked and signed on to to more schooling. My dad said, "You be so happy you went ahead and got your Masters."

This is my 11th year teaching. I have taught at Johns Creek, Lassiter, and, now, Hillgrove HS.

This course was SO MUCH WORK, but I really enjoyed my colleagues, professors, and my takeaways that built my confidence in my skills of teaching the gifted on all spectrums.

This was an AP Certification I had been wanting as Chemistry is my comfort area. :-)

When I graduated from HS, I had enough credits to qualify as a second-semester sophomore. I decided to stay at KSU to keep all my credits and asked, "What is the hardest major?" "Biochemistry." I said, "SIGN ME UP!"

If Hillgrove HS doesn't find anyone to hire who wants to teach AP Physics I, it looks like next Spring, 2025 will be when I will put this certificate to good use.
