Hello, and welcome to Mrs. Belk's webpage!  I am so excited to begin my 29th year of teaching!  

I graduated from Wingate College in 1990, and earned my Master's in Elementary Education from Winthrop University in 1994.  In 2001, I achieved National Board Certification, renewing that certification in 2011.  After several years of teaching in grades 3,4, and 5, I really began to take an interest in teaching gifted children.  In o rder to better serve my gifted students, I earned my AIG License from Western Carolina University in 2012.  It was my best decision ever!  I finally was able to begin my dream job as an AIG teacher in January of 2015.

I live in Lincolnton with my husband, Randy.  We have two children, Chris (23) and Macie (20). We have a wonderful cat, Grace, and an incredibly rude dog, Mollie. I enjoy traveling, family time,biking, flower gardening, reading, baking, shopping, jigsaw and logic puzzles, playing board games, and meeting new people!  

I am looking forward to being a part of your child's edcuational experience this year!
