My name is Amy Marks and I teach first grade at Daniel Pratt Elementary. This is my 18th year teaching and my 17th year at Daniel Pratt Elementary. I am very happy to be here. I have received my bachelor's degree from Auburn University in Montgomery, as well as my master's degree in Reading Education. I live in Prattville with my husband Chris and two boys, Collier 12, Mason 9! I'm very energetic about teaching and I look forward to growing and learning with your child everyday this year.
