As the new school year begins, I would like to introduce myself. My name is Adrianne Bracknell. I am one of the two new Developmental Pre-Kindergarten teachers here at Minglewood Elementary. This is my 12th year teaching. I have taught as a general education third grade teacher, a self-contained special education teacher for K-1 and K-2, a resource/inclusion special education teacher for K-5, and a developmental pre-kindergarten teacher. I have three teaching licenses for the state of Tennessee. I have earned a bachelor's degree in education with a concentration in special education from the University of Tennessee at Martin as well as a master’s degree in curriculum and instruction with a focus on special education from Liberty University.
