Hello! My name is Carmen Schuler. I grew up in Geneva County and graduated from Slocomb High School. I then received my Associate's degree from Enterprise State Community College and later transferred to the University of Troy-Dothan and earned my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education K-6. 

After college, I married and relocated to Mobile, AL for five years due to my husband's job. While living there, I taught fourth grade in the Mobile County Public School District for four years. We transferred back to our hometown and we could not be any happier to be back where we were both born and raised. We have one child, a little boy, named Noah Seth.

I am blessed and thankful to be a part of such a wonderful faculty and staff here at Geneva County Elementary. I am teaching fourth grade Science and Social Studies. This will be my 10th year in education. Over the years, I have realized becoming a teacher is not just the career path I have chosen, it is my divine calling. I feel I have chosen this profession to make a difference in the lives of young people. I have a compassionate heart for helping children understand the process of learning. It is my responsibility to find and provide ways to show children that learning can be enjoyable. Also, it is my place to establish ways that meet the individual needs of all students to the best of my ability. One of the most important roles of being an educator is to provide a safe and stimulating learning environment for all students. Through the experiences that I have encountered, I plan to strive to scaffold students to become independent thinkers, to realize there are no shortcuts to success, and to be life-long learners. I want to positively impact each and every child’s life that I encounter.
