About Your Teacher

My name is Hope West. I teach first grade!  It's such an exciting year of learning to read and do math! I graduated from Tennessee Wesleyan College with a bachelor’s degree in 2008. I began teaching at Rural Vale in August of 2008.  I received my master’s degree as a Reading Specialist from Walden University in 2011. I am married to Josh West and we are blessed with two children: Levi and Lydia. We live in the Epperson Community of Coker Creek. 
 
You can reach me by Class Dojo. You may also call the school (423-253-3551) during my plan time from 12:15-1:00 each day.
