Hi! My name is Trish Phillips. I am originally from rural Illinois, but I have spent the last five years teaching in Texas. I have taught 18 years of PreK, 2 years of kindergarten and I am looking forward to teaching first grade in Tennessee! My children are grown, so I have moved closer to the mountains where my heart is. My classroom is my second family, so I look forward to building family bonds that last for years to come. I am very excited to be a part of the Cumberland Heights Elementary first grade team!
