Mrs. Brenda Jones  - English teacher & Yearbook Adviser

After working for a few years in accounting, I went back for my teaching certification when my older children were quite young.  I enjoy teaching because it is always different - it is constantly changing.  I enjoy being very creative and mixing things up in the classrooms.

I have taught in NY, Nashville TN & LA, but the OBX is my home now.  I love living here.

This is my 20+ years of teaching.  I started teaching the yearbook a few years ago and have enjoyed that adventure.  Recently I was asked to be the northeastern representative for the North Carolina Scholastic Media Association for this year.
