Meet your teacher!

Welcome!  My name is Rebecca Skipper and I teach first grade here at Northside Elementary! I began teaching at Northside Elementary in 2015 and have taught both kindergarten and first grade. Before joining the Falcon Family, I lived in Illinois where I was a reading recovery teacher for 5 years. I love working with first graders and can't wait for the 2024-2025 school year to begin!

Before beginning my teaching career, I served in the United States Army. During my time in the Army and I was able to visit many different locations in the world. My favorite place was South Korea!

I have been married 26 years to my husband Robert and we have three wonderful kids, Cait, Audrey, and Jacob. Our favorite thing to do is travel! We also have 3 pets, our dog Rex, and 2 cats, Mimi and Pepper!
