  1. Welcome to 2nd Grade at Endeavor Charter School!

  2. Meet the Teachers

  3. Mrs. Wilson Room 122 My name is Amy Wilson. I'm excited about teaching second grade at Endeavor! I earned my early childhood education degree from S.U.N.Y. Cortland College in New York. My minor was psychology. I have lived in North Carolina for 13 years. Over the past twelve years I have taught both first and second grades. My husband and I have two girls: Hailey (rising third grader) and Hannah (3 years old). We have a yellow lab named Chloe. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family, scrapbooking, reading, and listening to music.

  4. Mrs. Mills Room 101 My name is Tonya Mills, and I am excited about teaching 2nd Grade this year. I am a Meredith College graduate with a degree in Early Childhood Education, and I have taught both 3rd grade and 2nd grade. My husband and I have three girls: Christianna (rising 9th grade), Gabrielle (rising 6th grade) and Isabella (rising 4th).  We have a giant breed German Shepherd, named Azlan and a soft-coated wheaten terrier named Trixie.  We also have a holland lop bunny named Cosmo.   Our class pets are two turtles.  One is a southern painted turtle and her name is Nancy and the other is a red-ear slider and his name is Drew.  During my free time I love spending time with my family, reading, creating dvd's on my computer, sewing, and painting.

  5. Mrs. Hester Room 102 I am a UNCG graduate with a concentration in Science Education. I have loved teaching at Endeavor! I was born in Virginia, but spent most of my life in North Carolina with my parents and three sisters. Just recently I got married and my husband and I now live in the Raleigh area. We have a Netherland Dwarf bunny that lives in the classroom during the week. I enjoy spending time with my family, scrapbooking, cooking, baking, and crafting!
