My name is Brenda Gist, and I have been teaching third grade at Dawson for 21 years. At this time I am teaching Math and Science to two groups of students. I live in Purdon with my husband. I have two children Bodee and Shelby. I also have twin grandsons JD and JW. I graduated from Dawson, and both of my children have also. I enjoy teaching in Dawson, and it is a very special place to me. I can't wait to teach your children and have a great year.
