About Mrs. SpearMy name is Sarah Spear, and I am the School Counselor at Huntsville Jr. High School in Huntsville, AL.
I grew up in Birmingham, AL. I was an honor graduate from Clay-Chalkville High School in 2007. My mom was a school teacher for 35 year, having taught English for 20 years at Hewitt-Trussville Jr. High. She was then offered a position to teach Home Economics and never looked back. She taught that for 5 years at HTJHS before it was closed. When it was closed, she moved to Clay-Chalkville High School and taught Family and Consumer Science, Food and Nutrition, and Parenting. My dad was a Mountain Brook Fire Fighter for 30 years. He is an Arson Investigator for his own company, R. W. P. Consulting. He is also a volunteer fire-fighter for Mentone Fire Department in Mentone, AL. While at Clay-Chalkville, I was very involved with Band, Colorguard, Dance Team, Math Team, and Spanish Club. I took my passion for dance and colorguard on to Auburn University where I marched on the Flag Line for the Auburn University Marching Band. I was lucky enough to march at the National Championship Game in 2010. I graduated in December 2010 with my Bachelors in Psychology. I decided I loved Auburn so much that I wanted to stay and get my Masters in School Counseling. I graduated in 2013 and was hired here in Huntsville shortly after. I was the School Counselor at Martin Luther King Jr. Elementary for the past four years. During my Freshman year at Auburn, I met the man I knew was "the one," Andy. We were married in 2014 and we have a Pembroke Welsh Corgi named Penny. |
