Laura Jacobs
I am originally from Bethesda, Maryland, a short metro ride from our nation's capital. I went to East Carolina University for my undergraduate degree and studied Middle Grades Education. I feel in love with North Carolina during college and decided to make it home when I graduated in 2007. Fresh out of college, I got a job with Wake County and I have been teaching at Apex Middle School ever since. I have been teaching Language Arts for the last six years and have loved every minute of it. Reading and sharing my love of reading is a big passion of mine. Even though I am from Maryland, I have always been a die-hard Carolina fan, In 2011 I finally had my dreams come true when I completed my Masters in Literacy there.
Besides reading, I love to travel. In the last 5 years I have been to France, Italy, Austria, Israel, Spain, and backpacked through the UK!
I am so excited to have this opportunity to grow professionally with a great group of teachers! and to go to the home land of my two favorite authors, Jane Austen and J. K Rowling!
