My name is Jessica Barnes Stephens.  I am a 1996 Sulligent High School graduate.  I then attended University of North Alabama where I obtained my B.S. in Education.  I began work at the Lamar County Board of Education in November of 2000 as the ISS teacher.  In 2001 I began teaching 6^th grade at Sulligent Elementary School.  I later moved to 2^nd grade and I am currently teaching 1^st grade. 

I married the love of my life, Shannon Stephens and we have three wonderful children.  Jenna Beth, Blake, and Chloe.  I have attended Sulligent Free Will Baptist since I was two years old.  My family and I are all active church members.  In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with my family.
