My name is Rebecca Shipley and I am so excited to share in this adventure with you! I have a Bachelors in Elementary Education with a Certificate in Early Childhood Special Education from Northwest Missouri State University and a Master’s in Elementary. I started my career teaching Kindergarten but am currently teaching Early Childhood Special Education! I am married to my husband (who also works in the district in IT) and have 2 wonderful kiddos (11 & 8) that keep us super busy with soccer and all of their social plans 😂​​​​​​📘 MSTA's Online Learning Platform
