Welcome! I am Mrs. Cates, and I teach 3rd grade at Busbee Corbett Elementary Middle School. Our school is full of wonderful teachers and students who love learning. Located in a very high poverty area, over 90% of our students receive free or reduced lunch. I firmly believe, however, that a child's background should not dictate their ability to learn and succeed. I know that I was called to teach, and I cannot imagine myself doing anything different. With your help, I hope to allow all of the students I teach to reach their maximum potential as learners!
