Hi! My name is Ms. Nicole Smith and I have 22 years of teaching experience. I have had the privilege of being a part of Pikeville Elementary School since 2006. After spending 4 years teaching at Bledsoe County Middle School, I was excited to accept a 5th grade teaching position at PES in 2006, where I taught for 8 years. Then in 2014, I began teaching grades 3-5 Reading and Math Intervention and am excited to be starting a new year in this role. I earned my Bachelors degree in teaching from Middle Tennessee State University, and a Masters degree in education from Lee University. When I'm not in the classroom, I enjoy spending time with my family camping, boating, and spending time outdoors in this beautiful place we call home.
