Hi! My name is Shelby McGraw. I am engaged to be married to my childhood friend and boyfriend of 5 years. I am from a small town down south called Stuttgart, Arkansas. I am a huge family person so I go visit them every chance I get. I am an aunt to two nieces and a nephew who I love with my whole heart. I graduated from the University of Arkansas-Fayetteville in 2015 with my Masters in Arts of Teaching and Special Education endorsement. I am currently taking classes through the U of A to receive my ESL endorsement. This is my fifth year teaching at Parson Hills and I am currently a 1st grade teacher. Teaching has always been a passion of mine with the goal of being able to positively help young children. I strive to be a positive light for my students each day, making sure they know they’re strong, important, and loved! 👩🏼‍🏫❤️

My name is Katlyn Murray. I have been teaching at Parson Hills for 5 years. I graduated from Harding University in 2014. I grew up in Springdale and have always attended Springdale Public Schools. My husband, our boys and I love baseball and being outside. I have always wanted to be a teacher! I love it! Kindergarten is so much fun!
