About Me

Hello there!  My name is Heather Sacharczyk and I am a RTI (Response to Intervention) teacher in middle Tennessee.

Emma Lou

My husband and I met while we were both in the Navy and have been married for 20 years.  We have three children, Kendall, Brooks, & Morgan. It's hard to believe that Kendall is a sophomore in college. Time goes by so quickly. We also have a four legged child, a blue weimaraner named Emma Lou.  My favorite things are spending time with my family, watching my children play sports, coffee, movies, reading, and traveling.

After graduating from college in May 2003, I started teaching preschool at a rural school district in Virginia. After one year, I moved to first grade for two years. Our family of five did a move to Memphis, where I taught third grade for two years and second for three years. With all of this moving and grooving, I was fortunate to be able to obtain a masters degree in Leadership/Curriculum and Development and a doctoral degree in Leadership and Policy Studies.

This is my second year as an Instructional Specialist.  I was very lucky to not only have gotten a job I love, but I am at a school which I absolutely love. I love working in RTI.  being able to help struggling students, and certainly see so many benefits of RTI.
