Mrs. Gilliam has always enjoyed working with children. She began her teaching career as a 19 year old teacher assistant and bus driver. After getting her Bachelor's in Elementary and Special Education, she taught Pre-K, 1st, and 2nd grades. Mrs. Gilliam credits her 4th grade teacher for starting her down the education path. Outside of school, you can find her spending time with her family and pets or reading a book.
My mother told me that I decided to become a teacher when I was 5 years old. I would line up all of my stuffed animals and teach them the ABC's and how to write. My 4th-grade teacher told me that I would be a great teacher, I had the pleasure to work with her as a teacher assistant. These special influences stuck with me and here I am a teacher.
