Hello Fox Family!
I am beyond thrilled to become a part of the Fox Family! Having the opportunity to work at Forest Hill Elementary is an honor to me. I look forward to serving the students, teachers, and families. Getting to know each of you is a top priority of mine!
The Memphis area is where I have my roots. I’m a proud product of Tennessee Public Schools; I graduated from Germantown High School. For my undergraduate program, I attended the University of Memphis. Union University is where I received my Masters and Specialist degrees.
As part of my fourteen-year career, I have been an elementary teacher in both Tennessee and Mississippi. I have worked with students from kindergarten through fifth grade in a variety of roles. In the beginning, I was a classroom teacher then I served as a District Math and Science Specialist as well as an Instructional Coach. Each role holds a very special place in my heart. I am so thankful to be returning to my hometown. There is no where I’d rather be than here!
I am engaged and getting married at the end of August. He (Michael) will soon take on the role of daddy to my two beagle sisters, Daisy and Riley. And these girls are definitely spoiled as they have outfits for every occasion! You will see me sporting my Memphis sports gear. I’m a BIG fan - Go Tigers and Grizzlies! (After the last year, won’t we all be glad to attend our favorite sporting events again?)
I can’t wait to meet you!
Christy Bennett
Assistant Principal | Forest Hill Elementary School
