Hello! My name is Kattie Hendrix. I am a life-long resident of Talladega County where I have served as an educator for 14 years (9 years as a 4th grade teacher and 5 as a Gifted Specialist). I hold a Bachelors and Masters Degree both in Elementary Education as well as an additional Masters Degree in Gifted and Talented Education. I am currently pursuing National Board Certification in Exceptional Needs with an emphasis on Gifted and Talented Education. I love to learn and improve my craft as an educator to benefit my students. In addition to my professional career, I am wife to Zane and mother to four daughters: Anslea (20), Adyson (17), Emery-Kate (14), and Piper (7). I am also a breast cancer survivor. Some of my favorites are coffee, sweet tea, the beach, music, Fall, makeup, dogs, crafts, and advocating for Gifted learners and breast cancer victims.
