Terri Pope

I am looking forward to a great 2022-2023 school year as I enter my 14th year as a kindergarten paraprofessional and my 12th year as an Oakhurst Owl. I believe that the work that I do influences a child’s attitude about school and learning. Therefore, my goal is to make sure that students feel seen, heard, and most of all loved.

I am a native of Atlanta and a mother of two very fine young men, Jordan and Joshua. My educational journey includes a Bachelor of Arts degree in psychology from Mercer University (Macon) and a Master of Social Work degree from the University of Georgia. Although I spent 15 years as a social worker, it is the love of children and the magic that happens inside of the classroom and of course, motherhood, that landed me in another purpose, and I love it! When I am not working, I enjoy spending time with my family and taking in the sights and sounds of the outdoors.
