My name is Julie Murphree and I have taught third grade at Ashville Elementary School for 24 years.  I am happily married and my husband is a teacher at Ashville High School.  We have 8 year old twin daughters that keep us very busy.  I teach reading and grammar and hope that I can instill a love of reading into each child I teach.  I also teach social studies.  I love history and maps.  In my spare time, not that I have much of that, I enjoy watching Alabama football and spending time with my friends and family.  I also love to shop and to read (of course). I look forward to a great year!
