My name is Candice Leaverton and this is my 15th year as a Special Education Teacher. I grew up in Clarksville and attended Austin Peay State University for my Bachelors degree. I have been married to my husband Jason for 17 years, and we have one daughter that is 16. Thanks to my husband's Army career, my teaching career has taken me to Alaska, Georgia, Italy, and now back home to Tennessee. If all goes well, I will be finished with my Educational Doctorate from Union University degree in February. When I am not at school fulfilling my role as a Special Education Teacher as well as Special Education Department Chair, I like to go camping at Land Between the Lakes with my husband, daughter, and three dogs. I feel honored to be part of such an amazing school full of wonderful students.
