My Classroom Mission

Our mission is to assist students in reaching their academic potential by supporting teachers with training and adequate resources, providing diagnostic services for students, ensuring compliance with IDEA, and advocating for students.

We will do this by:  

Working together. Asking questions. Trying our best. Staying positive. 

Believing in ourselves!

 
Kids are Great!

 

 
About Me
My name is Ashley Downes. I recently graduated with a masters degree from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. I have an undergraduate and masters degree in Special Education with a concentration in learning disabilities and mild/moderate disabilities. I am certified to teach K-12 in all subject areas and all students with disabilities.
 
I am an Exceptional Children's resource teacher and teach Reading, Writing, and Math.
 
I have always had a passion for teaching children with special needs and I cannot be more excited to start my first year at Third Creek Elementary.
