Mrs. Jessie Norris
My name is Jessie Norris, and I teach 8th Grade English Language Arts at Liberty Middle School. This will be my 12th year teaching English Language Arts. Prior to teaching in Madison City Schools, I taught in Omaha Public Schools in Omaha, Nebraska.
I am lucky to have many "hometowns" - I am an Army Brat, so I had the privilege to live in a variety of wonderful places growing up! When it came time to decide on my post-secondary adventures, I decided to attend Creighton University. In 2013, I earned my BA in English with a specialization in Secondary Education. Upon graduation, I began my teaching career with the Omaha Public Schools, where I taught 7th and 8th Grade Reading and English Language Arts. I have experience teaching these courses at the inclusion, standard, and honors levels. In 2016, I completed my MA in Educational Administration - Principalship at The University of Nebraska at Kearney. Our family moved to Madison, AL in 2021 to be closer to family. Last year, I had the opportunity to join the Liberty Girls Basketball program as an Assistant Coach; I am looking forward to my second season with the team this year - Go Lady Lions!
When I am not teaching or coaching, I love spending time with my husband, our two daughters, and our fun-loving dog. We enjoy exploring Madison and the surrounding areas. Our family loves playing/watching sports, being outside, reading books, cooking up new recipes, and playing board games!
I look forward to our learning journey this year!
