GARFIELD

     Hi!  My name is Desiree' Highberger.  The 2019-2020 school year begins my 28^th year of teaching for Enid Public Schools.  I am excited to be an Instructional Coach working with the wonderful teachers and students at Garfield, Adams, and Coolidge.

     I have an Elementary Education degree along with my Masters of Education.  In recent years,  I also received my physical education certification.   I have taught the 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades as a classroom teacher and have worked with first grade through fifth grade students as a Title I reading teacher.  I have enjoyed working with each grade level of students!

     A few years back, I actually began teaching the children of former students from my first years of teaching!  It has been wonderful to see my former students now as parents themselves!  

    In the 2013-2014 school year, I was chosen Monroe Elementary's Teacher of the Year.  It was a wonderful honor that I will always treasure!
