All About Me
marcells (2).jpg
My name is Marcella Simmonds. I  was born and raised in the Virgin Islands which are in the Caribbean.  I came to sunny Minnesota in 1983 to further my education.  I attended Bethel College, now Bethel University, and obtained a BA in Elem Ed in 1987.  I went on to earn my MA in Curriculum and Instruction from St.Thomas University in 1995. I am currently furthering my studies at the  University of Minnesota.

 I have been with the the gifted program since 1989.  I taught 5th grade for one year and have been teaching sixth grade since. I enjoy working with this age group. 

Dancing, reading, traveling and hanging out with my family are some of the things I really enjoy doing. I am also the mother of a teenager.
