Hello! My name is Deana Bagley and I’m a North Carolina native and product of WCPSS schools (Bugg, Carnage & Enloe). This is my first year at Jeffreys Grove but my 17th year in the district. I’m married with a 12 year old son and we adore our Westie pup!

Outside of school I am a full time hockey mom! We love traveling to watch my son play and of course the Carolina Hurricanes! I also enjoy spending time with family and friends and visiting the NC mountains or beaches. My favorites are Beaufort and Boone.

Hello!  My name is Jessica Stewart and I am the school nurse for Jeffreys Grove and Barton Pond Elementary Schools. I have been a school nurse for 6 years and a nurse for 28 years. I am an Eastern NC native. I enjoy spending my free time with my husband and 3 adult children as much as possible and prefer most of that time to be at the beach/on the water!

Hi everyone! My name is Gaby Lyons. I was born in Panama City, Panama but was raised in Buffalo, NY.  I moved to Cary, NC, four years ago to complete a master’s program  in communication sciences and disorders at North Carolina Central University. Prior to becoming a speech pathologist, I was a high school Spanish and French teacher in Buffalo. I grew up speaking Spanish and English at home and as an adult, I learned French and Brazilian Portuguese. I am passionate about supporting bilingual students and am excited about this new experience! 

In my free time, I love to travel, read, and spend time with friends and family. This summer, I spent three weeks traveling in Brazil and Argentina.
