New Faculty: Mrs. Morris

     Mrs. Morris is one of the many new faces you may see in the hallways of Rural Retreat. Mrs. Morris, a former graduate of George Wythe High School, has recently joined our science department, where she teaches ecology and earth science, and is the assistant coach of the cheerleading squad. When asked what she thought of our cheerleaders, she said “I am very excited to be working with such a good group of ladies.”

     Mrs. Morris got her bachelor's degree in science at Virginia Tech, and her master's, also in science, at North Carolina A&T State University. In a recent interview she told us that she loves Rural Retreat so far, and that her favorite part of our school is the kids. When asked if she would rather teach any other subject, she responded with “No, I love science.” Although if she had to choose, it would be agriculture. 

     So, if you see Mrs. Morris in the hallway or during class, be sure to say hi, and welcome to Rural Retreat!
