Hello, my name is Blair Pike and I am originally from Garrett County Maryland. I graduated from Frostburg State University with both my Undergrad and Master’s Degree. I have worked in Hampshire County, West Virginia and recently moved back to my home town! I have a husband who works at Southern Middle School and a beautiful daughter named Reagan. I like to travel however, the only other country I have been to is Ireland. When travel isn’t possible; I like to hike, read, and crochet.

 

 

I attended Fairmont State University for my Bachelor's degree and West Virginia University for my Master's degree. I've taught in West Virginia, Virginia and Maryland. I'm a native of Tucker County, West Virginia, so I'm close to my roots. So excited to be in a new position this year as an Academic Intervention Specialist. It's going to be a Great Year!!!!

 

 

 

 

 

My name is Kelly Dillon. It is a pleasure to live and work in Western Maryland. I have been teaching for 26 years in Maryland, 21 years in Anne Arundel County. My husband and I lived in the Annapolis area for 25 years until we moved up here permanently to our log cabin in 2017. We are so grateful to live in Accident, MD. I grew up in Harford County, Maryland. I attended Frostburg State University and Towson University and earned a Bachelor of Science degree in Elementary Education. I earned a Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction with an emphasis on science from Loyola University. I have taught third, fourth, fifth, eighth, and Gifted and Talented students in the past. I love teaching, and feel blessed to have the opportunity to teach in Garrett County as well. I love to read and paint in my spare time. I love to watch football and baseball, and yes I am a Baltimore fan!

Hi, my name is Leslie Millar and I have worked at Broad Ford for the past seven years as a substitute teacher. I am originally from Northern New Jersey, but I went to WVU for college where I learned to love the country roads. After a short stint in Kansas City, Missouri, I headed back east to Garrett County in 2012 and have enjoyed mountain life ever since! I will be going back to school through Frostburg State in the near future for my Master's Degree in Elementary Education. In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my fiance, my son, and our three lovable pitbulls.
