I am so glad you decided to check out our site! My name is Risa Allen and this is my third year teaching at JMA. I have taught in the Baldwin County public school system for 30 years and have taught special education, kindergarten, second grade, and third grade. I am married to Rodney who is retired from GCSU but not retired from working around our house and land. I have two daughters: Kenzie graduated from UGA (go DAWGS!) and is working on her master's in clinical counseling. Maddie is a freshman at UGA. We love doing things together and often act really silly:) We have a mini schnauzer named Max, and Kenzie has a chi-weenie named Meeka who spends a lot of time at our house. I love to read, watch Maddie play tennis, play cards, and just hang out with my friends. I go to Northridge Christian Church and love it. I am super excited about teaching at JMA this year and know it's going to be awesome!
