Mrs. Jennifer Tyvand
I was born in Maryland and grew up an "army brat". My family moved all over until my dad retired in Virginia in 1989. I graduated from high school in 1992 and went on to a community college and then a four-year university. I earned my BA in English in 1997 and my K-5 teaching certificate in 1998. I began teaching in 1998 in Portsmouth, Virginia. I taught first grade for eight years there. I met my husband, Ray, a Marine, in 2003 and we married at the end of 2004. We moved down here in December of 2005 and I began working at Morton in August of 2006. I taught Kindergarten my first year here and then had the opportunity to move up to first grade, then taught fourth grade for five years. I spent one year in second grade at Morton before moving closer to home and teaching at Heritage for two years. I taught at Onslow Virtual School in it's opening year and then went back to Heritage last year. I am very excited to be at Stateside Elementary this year.
In 2008, my husband and I had our first (and only) child, Chase. He's the light of my life!!!! :) He is ready to start eighth grade this year. My husband retired in May 2016 after 21 years of service to our country in the Marine Corps. We have a beagle named Daisy who has just turned two years old.
