Mrs. Gleason has worked at Hobble Creek since it opened 13 years ago as a crossing guard and a skills lab coach. She has worked a total of 20 years as a crossing guard for other schools. She loves children and has 5 of her own children. She can be found rain or shine every morning and afternoon crossing the students of Hobble Creek, watching children during lunch recess and helping out students during the day with their math, reading and behavior. Our school wouldn't be the same without her. 

Her favorite color is coral. She doesn't really have a favorite book but likes "Oh, the places you'll go!". Favorite sport is baseball. Favorite cake is chocolate. She loves soup and homemade bread. She's really good at sewing and listening. She loves to travel and dance. She would like to learn how to quilt. She loves working with the students at our school. Say hi and thank you next time you see Mrs. Gleason.

We are lucky at Hobble Creek to have such a great principal. He cares about every student at Hobble Creek and works hard to make sure we have a great school. Here are some facts you may not know about him. His favorite color is blue. He loves to read all the Harry Potter books. Baseball is his favorite sport. His favorite cake is white with white frosting and coconut-yum!. If he could eat one food for the rest of his life if would be McDonald's french fries. He loves to spend time with his family and travel. Everyone thinks its funny when he tries to sing. He would like to learn to cook and wishes he had more time to read. Make sure to say hi next time you see him.
