Mrs. April Stepp’s classroom

This will be my third school year with Hickory Public Schools and my second year at Oakwood Elementary! This is my eighth year of teaching! Seeing the students make connections and grow each year is a joy!

​

I have a Bachelors degree in Psychology from Elon University. I went back to school to get my Special Educators License in NC through Graduate courses online at the University of Phoenix!

My husband, Danny, and I live in Newton with our son, Wyatt, and 5 pets! Wyatt, our son, is in the 8th grade this year, loves chess, archery, science, and wants to be a paleontologist/ fighter pilot/ youtuber! For our pets; we have a 2 year old lab mix named Bailey, 2 full grown adult cats; Oreo and Izzy; and 2 smaller 1 year old cats; Blackbeard and Pinky!  We love animals, gardening and being outdoors by the lake, pool or ocean!
