Hi all!  My name is Joanna Futch, and I am thrilled to be starting my third year with Madison City Schools.  I teach Special Education Pre-K, and I love it!  I have been married to Richard for 36 years, and we have two amazing children (I am a bit prejudiced, of course).  My undergraduate degree is in Accounting.  We had our children later than most, so I decided to stay home and care for them myself.  That is when my passion for preschoolers was born.  I loved learning about how they were learning.  Our son had a speech delay, and that was my first exposure to any kind of Special Education services. 

We moved to Georgia in 1998 from Florida, and I went back to college and earned a certificate in Special Education from the University of Georgia (Go DAWGS!).  I taught in the public and private sector.  We moved to Madison in 2016 as empty nesters, and we are very happy here.  I miss my kids like crazy, but teaching makes it a little easier.  

Welcome to Madison City and Mill Creek Elementary School!
