Welcome to Thorpe Gordon! My name is Sarah Kimble. I am so excited to be at Thorpe Gordon. This year is my nineteenth year of teaching. I was born and raised in Jefferson City. After graduating from Missouri State University with my BS in Elementary Education, I moved back home to Jefferson City. I started my teaching career at Belair Elementary in first grade where I taught for 3 years. During this time, I worked on my Master's of Education in Special Reading at the University of Missouri - Columbia. When I got married, my husband and I moved to St. Louis. I taught first grade in the Webster Groves School District for 6 years. We are excited to come back home and raise our 2 children in our hometown.
