About Mrs. Wood

    Welcome to my website, I am very glad you have come by today.  I hope you are enjoying your time here at the Lil' Red School House.  I'm Mrs. Wood and I am the creator of this site.  I live in the great state of Oklahoma, up in the very northeastern corner. I have worked with children for the past 11 years, substitute teaching, leading Girl Scouts and working in our church.  I have worked with children from age three through grade 12, I even homeschooled for a while.  I currently teach at Mt. Olive Lutheran School in Miami, Oklahoma and love my job!  It's so rewarding to get up everyday and work with such wonderful people.  I run our school's after school program and work with children from age 3 through grade 5.
