Hello, my name is Vernessia (pronounced Vanessa...cool story) Dickerson, and I am very excited about meeting my new students and their parents this upcoming year. I love teaching, especially reading, and I cannot wait to introduce the wonderful novels that I have planned for this upcoming year!

I believe that through effective teaching and nurturing, each child will be able to grow intellectually, physically, and socially. I am a caring teacher. I am very dedicated, very passionate, and very excited about working with children. Through reading, my goal is to guide students to new discoveries and new opportunities about learning.

I have a wonderful family! My husband, Earl, works for the Air Force. He is a former math teacher. My daughter Amber graduated from the University of Alabama...Roll Tide! I also have a son, Christian, who will be starting 9th grade this year.

Welcome to the 6th Grade, and let's have a great year!!!!
