I then obtained a MSE from UCA in Educational Leadership in 1986. I have been named to Who's Who Among American Teacher, a member of Kappa Kappa Iota, Arkansas Indian Intertribal Council, Arkansas Reading Council, and Order of the Eastern Star. I began my teaching career teaching at Florence Mattison, then at Jim Stone, and now at Cummins. I have taught third and fourth grade for 30 years in the Conway system. I enjoy vacations, spending time with my daughter, playing with "the girls" (dogs Lucy and Annie), and playing in flowerbeds.
Debbie Moore
Hi! I am Debbie Moore, a fourth grade teacher at Woodrow Cummins Elementary. Following my high school graduation from Tupelo High School in Mississippi, I moved to Arkansas and obtained my BSE in Early Childhood Education and my MSE in Special Education from UCA. I have been with the Conway School District for 23 years. Prior to teaching fourth at Woodrow Cummins Elementary, I taught first and fourth grades at Florence Mattison International Elementary School and fourth grade at Jim Stone Elementary. Stories about my grandmother, who taught in a one room school house, instilled in me a passion for teaching. I am fortunate to see this continue with my daughter and daughter-in-law, who are both kindergarten teachers. My husband, an employee of Conway Corporation, and I are members of Second Baptist Church. My youngest daughter is pursuing a nursing degree in Missouri. Spending time with my family is one of greatest joys. My grandchildren, Gracie and Ty, keep me busy as their number one fan. When I do have some down time, I love curling up with a good book and my dog.
