Mrs. Adams started her teaching career as a traveling art teacher serving three elementary schools and 1,500 students in Longmont, Colorado.
Her family journey took her to Montana, Michigan, Kansas, and finally Texas. She taught elementary art for 33 years at All Saints Episcopal School in Tyler, retiring in 2021. She decided to jump back into teaching after visiting Bridgemark.
