Mrs. Jackson is a fun-loving first grade teacher by day and a fast-paced mom taxi by night. She grew up in a mountain city and has since settled down among the corn fields to raise her two wacky and wonderful children, Kylie and Colin, with her husband Ryan and their sweet therapy dog Willow.

When she is not teaching or cartwheeling around the playground, she and Willow can be found reading with kids at the public library. She loves picture books, blue skies, and sunshine. She believes in spreading kindness and can often be seen wearing one of her many kindness t-shirts.

Mrs. Jackson has taught first grade for eleven years, seven of which have been at Mahomet-Seymour.  She has also taught preschool, kindergarten, Title One Reading, and gymnastics.
