My name is Julie Poyer. I am originally from Ellicottville, New York, a small town about an hour south of Buffalo. I graduated from Buffalo State University, came down to visit Raleigh and never left. :) I have taught in Wake County for many years and am thrilled to be part of the community at Jeffreys Grove!

My husband,Tim, and I have 2 daughters - Emma is a freshman at NC State and Calli is an 8th grader at Carroll Middle. We have 2 lab rescues, 2 cats and 3 chickens. When I’m not at school, I love to read, garden, ski and go to the beach.

I am looking forward to a great year!
