This is my 2nd year as a Matt Mainer, and I am so excited to SAIL through the year. I have taught in Forsyth County for 19 years. 18 of those 19 years have been in specialized education classrooms. I have experience from Pre-k to 12th grade and have loved it all. I grew up in Forsyth County and graduated from North Forsyth High School. I continued my education with my dual degree in Regular Education and also Special Education at North Georgia College and State University. After a year of teaching, I pursued my Master's Degree from Lesley University with Technology in Education. Last summer I completed my Specialist in Instructional Technology at West Georgia University to enhance my classroom with the latest technology mixed with the traditional classroom lessons. I have two daughters who both attend Forsyth County Schools. We love to spend our time outside, playing card games and traveling.
