Welcome to first grade! My name is Mrs. Byrd, and I’m going to be your child’s first grade teacher this year at Moody Elementary. This is my 12th year teaching in St. Clair County, my 10th year teaching at Moody Elementary, and my 1st year teaching first grade. I graduated from Moody High School in 2007 before attending The University of Alabama. I graduated from The University of Alabama in 2011 with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education and earned a Master’s Degree in Elementary Education from The University of West Alabama in 2017. In 2018, I was voted by my peers as Moody Elementary Teacher of the Year. 

In my spare time I enjoy watching college and NFL football, traveling, cheering on The New York Yankees, and singing. I have an amazing husband named Chris. Chris and I have been married for five years. We have a beautiful and very busy one year old little girl named Morgan. I truly understand all of the sayings about time being a thief, because this year has flown by as I’ve watched my baby become a toddler. This year will be filled with learning, making friends, and having fun while we 
do it! I am looking forward to a great school year
