Welcome to Room 214 and my webpage! I am Karla Howell and this is my 5th year teaching at Jackson High School. Although I have not been in Butts County long, I have been teaching students with disabilities for over 20 years. I consider my opportunity to work with these students a privilege and a pleasure. I look forward to another productive year. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns.

Working with me this year is Ms. Joanie Ritenour. Ms. Ritenour spent quite a bit of time in our classroom last year as a substitute paraprofessional, so she is quite familiar wth the students (and they with her). She has worked as a substitute teacher in Butts County for several years and after working with our wonderful group, she decided to join us full-time. We are very thankful that she is with us.
