Hello and welcome to 7th and 8th grade ELA! This is my first year here at Liberty Middle, and I am so excited to be part of the Lion family!

I am originally from upstate New York (Geneva), and moved to Nashville, TN about 10 years ago to attend Vanderbilt University. On July 1st this summer, I married my wonderful husband in NY and moved to Alabama. My name will eventually change to Morris, but for now it is Hagadorn! We have two large lapdogs at home; German Shepherds named Sasha and Lexi. I love new adventures, baking, anything Pumpkin Spice, cold weather and winter, the Boston Red Sox, Italian food, and am learning to love the LSU Tigers (thanks to my husband)!

This will be my 11th year of teaching, and I have taught elementary, middle, and high school; I have spent the last four years teaching 8th grade English in LaVergne, TN. At Nazaareth College in Rochester, NY, I completed my undergrad in English and Education, and my first masters degree in educational technology. I taught third grade in NY for two years, then moved to Nashville to work on my second masters' degree in Deaf Education at Vanderbilt University. I am so excited to be here at Liberty and am looking forward to a great year! Go Lions!!
