Welcome to our First Grade website! My name is Sue Harmon and it is an honor and privilege to teach your child at Leaphart Elementary where each of my own three children attended! I have a passion for teaching where I consider it is my responsibility to enable students to meet their fullest potential. I do this in a positive learning environment that fosters growth in their problem-solving skills through experience and strategies. Success breeds success and I believe every student can learn and I will do everything possible to help everyone develop and enjoy learning. I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education from Columbia College. I previously taught at a private kindergarten-preschool. My husband Bill and I have three wonderful children, all are married. We also have two very precious granddaughters and one grandson with another granddaughter due in late September. To round it out, Colby is our miniature schnauzer who is our youngest “child”!
