About Mrs. Cleaver I was born and raised in Mississippi. I attended the University of Mississippi located in Oxford Mississippi. I have taught Instructional Resource at Idlewild Elementary School since 2010. I love being a special education teacher! I get to help students who struggle with learning, achieve things far beyond what they ever dreamed possible. I help regular education teachers work with identified students in their classes, and I help my students learn to communicate their needs and frustrations to their teachers, parents, and others. I am married and I have 2 children. I feel as though being a mom is my most important job. My children mean the world to me, and when I send them off to school each day, I trust that they are in the hands of teachers who genuinely care about them and want to help them learn. This is the same feeling that I want my parents to feel when they send their babies to me everyday.
