Chazz Sheffey’s Biography
Hello all! This is my first year at Excelsior – I will be teaching 1st Grade! I am a new North Carolina resident this summer from Virginia where I was born and raised. For the past four and a half years, I have been a teacher to children (K-12th) with emotional, mental and behavioral disabilities. I attended Old Dominion University before transferring and graduating from my hometown’s Mary Baldwin University. Since I was a child, I have always dreamed of being a teacher. “Educating the mind without educating the heart is no education at all.” As a teacher, I strive to create an environment that safe, creative, kindhearted and gives space for children to discover all of their greatest strengths.
Fun Fact: From Kindergarten to my 12th Grade graduation (13 years), I had NEVER missed a day of school! On graduation day, I received a trophy as tall as I was for having perfect attendance!
