Mrs. Brenda Jones  - 12th grade 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 can also be very creative and mixed things up.

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

This is my 20th year teaching.  I started teaching yearbook two 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.    I am also working on my National Boards these past two years and hopefully will be finishing it up soon.
