Hi! I am Jessica Petry, and I teach first grade at Lee Elementary. This is currently my 16th year teaching, and I have spent all 16 years in first grade! I absolutely love this age because I feel like I really get to watch their learning take off. I graduated from University of Mobile many years ago, and I taught for 13 years in Mobile County before coming home to Satsuma. This is my 3rd year at Lee Elementary.

I grew up in Satsuma, and my husband Joel and I built a house here a couple years ago. We have 2 sweet girls- Ella is in 6th grade and Caroline is in 4th grade. We go to Redemption Church in Saraland. As a family, we love movie nights, board games, swimming, and fun nights with our friends. As an individual, I love reading, Target, coffee, and Vanilla Coke. Not at the same time :)

I love our school, and I know you will too!
