    About Ms. Adams

    Originally from Farmington, CT, I made my way down south for college and now call Fuquay home. I graduated from ECU with a degree in Birth-Kindergarten education and then decided to add on an elementary education license. I loved it so much that I went back to ECU for my master’s in library science. I spent 8 years as a classroom teacher before diving into the library world for the past 12 years. I am married to my wonderful husband and have 2 amazing kids who are sea turtles at South Lakes. We also recently added our yellow lab Zoey to the family. When I’m not working, you’ll find me outside enjoying the beach or mountains, cheering on our favorite sports teams, and exploring new places.

    About Ms. Schumann

    With 27 years of experience in Visual Arts education, I bring a wealth of knowledge and passion to the SLES art studio classroom. I hold a Bachelor of Fine Arts from East Carolina University and a Master of Art Education from UNC Pembroke, along with National Board Certification since 2010. My teaching journey has taken me through all student levels, including elementary, middle school, high school, and college. I particularly enjoy working with watercolor painting, ceramics, and sculpture. Outside of teaching, I prioritize daily fitness through strength training, walking/jogging, and spin classes. I love the outdoors especially sunsets, mountains, and the coast. Currently, I live in Fuquay Varina with my husband, enjoying life as empty nesters while cherishing our four adult children and our adorable toddler grandson.
