All About Mrs. Wherritt...

Hi my name is Judith Wherritt and I’m a fourth grade teacher at Shady Brook Elementary.  I currently live in Kannapolis with my husband and mini dachshund, Sallie.  In my spare time I enjoy reading, traveling, and spending time with family and friends. 


I am originally from the small town of Cleveland, North Carolina and attended college at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte.  While at UNCC, I earned my bachelors in Elementary Education in 2009.  After some substitute teaching and an interim position, I began my teaching career with Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools at University Meadows Elementary where I taught third grade.  Over the 2012 summer I joined the Shady Brook family and moved up to teach fourth grade.  I love fourth grade and am looking forward to another awesome year!


Educational Philosophy/Vision:

I am very excited about the upcoming school year and am looking forward to a year celebrating much success!  I love watching my students progress throughout the year and I believe there must be a strong partnership between home and school for students to be successful.  Please feel free to contact me with questions about classroom assignments or events at any time.
