ABOUT MRS. STAMBAUGH
Welcome to 4S! I have been at Tuckerton Elementary for seventeen years. My husband and I graduated from Shippensburg University in Pennsylvania. I have also taught in Pennsylvania and Maryland. I took time to raise and teach our three sons for a few years. We have three grandchildren! We have loved two special dogs in our home over the years, Donner and Blitzen.
I encourage students to stick with their work and never give up. Even the smartest learners will have to learn to have GRIT to be successful. I love to get to know my students and I never give up on their ability to succeed!
