Hello!  My name is Mrs. Cheryl Thornton, and I’m so happy to be teaching second grade at Dixie Bee.  I have been at Dixie Bee Elementary School for the entirety of my teaching career teaching first and second graders.  I attended Indiana State University where I received my B.S. and M.S. degrees in Elementary Education with a middle school math endorsement.  My husband and I are parents to two grown sons, Nathan and Tyler, and love being grandparents to three little grandchildren!  I remember wanting to be a teacher from the time I was just a little girl.  It is a joy coming to this wonderful school each day, working with supportive families, and planning fun learning activities for my boys and girls!
