    Who is Mrs. Sneed?

     

    Hello, my name is Cheryl Sneed (please feel free to call me Cheryl).  This year I am looking forward to celebrating my 11th wedding anniversary, my daughter Joclynn’s 10th birthday, and my 10th amazing year in 2nd grade.  This will be my sixteenth year teaching at Diamond Canyon.  Joclynn will be a 4th grader and I am overly excited to have my girl remain in the Coyote family. She is our little miracle; she was born January 31st, 2011. Like her mother... she wanted to make a grand entrance, 2 ½ months early. She is doing great and has earned the nickname “Sprout” growing like a weed and ready to learn as much as she can.        

       I was born and raised in Erie Pennsylvania; a graduate of Clarion University also located in PA. I enjoy visiting friends and family there during the summer, swimming, shopping and just being in my home town. I love my home town, but the 9 months of winter and never ending lake effect snow made it very easy to move. Sunshine......Now that is my all time favorite.  I can't get enough of it!  Living in Arizona has given me not only the opportunity to teach. I met my loving husband here, and began my life. We enjoy being in the pool (much cleaner then Lake Erie), being with friends and family, and just acting silly around the house. I can't say I am a AZ native, however I am an AZ lover!     
                 I believe learning starts at home with the guidance and support of family, and in the classroom obtaining the academic and social skills needed to be successful.  Being a life long learner is about challenging your self and allowing others to challenge you. With error and mistake comes learning.
