Abigail is a graduate of Salisbury High School in Salisbury, Missouri. She is currently a student at Central Methodist University in Fayette working on a major in Biology Education.
Abigail shares, "Being an educator in a rural Missouri community isn't exactly everyone's calling, but I believe it is mine. Growing up in a small Missouri community has made me fall in love with the idea of giving back to communities like mine. I want to give my future students the opportunities that I was given. I am proud to be a future teacher in rural Missouri."
A college professor shares that "As a former teacher and administrator, I feel Abigail will be outstanding as a rural teacher. Her ability to build relationships, dependability, supportive nature, motivation to learn, commitment and engagement will allow her to use her talents and knowledge in a multitude of ways to positively influence the lives of her students." Another professor shares, "Abigail grew up in a rural area, so she knows and understands the unique features of rural America and exactly what is required to make it grow and succeed."
