Welcome to my website at Sunset Ridge.  My name is Jo Anne George and I will be your preschool child’s Speech-Language Pathologist.  I am looking forward to a fantastic year with new and returning preschoolers!  I work directly with students through the Developmental Preschool Programs; as well as, with campus speech students.

I moved to Arizona with my husband and two children in July of 2014 from Albuquerque, NM and I began working with the Deer Valley Unified School District in the Fall of 2015.  I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Communicative Disorders from the University of New Mexico in 1994, my Master’s Degree in Speech-Language Pathology from New Mexico State University in 1998 and have maintained my ASHA certification since 1998.

I have two children, Austin and Azriel.  My son, Austin, has graduated from high school.  I currently spend a lot of time driving my high school daughter, Azriel, to and from school, her dance classes and a host of other activities (until she gets her driver's license and is released to drive the streets of Phoenix).  In my free time, I enjoy hiking and taking walks with my husband and our dog (Chloe), spoiling my son's cat (Marty), traveling and spending time with family and friends. 

I can be reached by e-mail at JoAnne.george@dvusd.org if you have any questions or concerns.
