Miss Gloria
Infants
For the past 11 years, Sopchoppy, Florida has been the home of Gloria and her family. Gloria is a devoted grandmother who is currently raising her lovely three-year-old granddaughter. As an infant teacher, Gloria is passionate about her work and loves to nurture and educate children of all ages, especially babies. After dedicating 35 years of her life to the department of Florida, Gloria gracefully retired. Subsequently, she served the Leon County School Board for a period of 3 years before wholeheartedly pursuing her true calling. For the past 3.5 years, Gloria has been diligently fulfilling her role as a certified caregiver, nurturing and guiding young minds.
Classie, a retired paraprofessional and bus driver, dedicated her career to serving the students of Wakulla County and Leon County school districts. After 38 years with Wakulla County schools and 12 years with Leon County schools, she decided to retire in 2015. Throughout her career, Classie had the privilege of working closely with ESE students, from whom she learned valuable lessons, just as they learned from her. Classie's true joy in her work came from assisting children in reaching their full potential and understanding the key factors that contribute to their success.
Following her retirement in 2015, Classie continued her involvement in education by volunteering at her grandson's elementary school. Fondly known as Grannie, she dedicated several days a week to support the school community until the outbreak of Covid-19. In 2021, she embarked on a new journey as a teacher at Bright Beginnings Daycare Family, initially working with three-year-olds and now with two to three-year-olds.
Aside from her professional endeavors, Classie is a widow and a proud mother of five adult children. She cherishes her role as a grandmother to six grandchildren, one grand puppy, and three great-grandchildren. When she is not working, Classie actively participates in her church activities and enjoys quality time with her beloved family.
