My name is Ms. Ateara (pronounced uh-ti-ruh) Best! I am thrilled to be part of the Snowden family.  I have been in education for many years. I have a BS in Early Care and Education from the University of North Carolina at Greensboro. As an educator, it is important for me to ensure that all students learn and grow. My desire is to make a positive impact on the lives of children, families, the community, and fellow educators. I'm looking forward to having a fantastic year full of learning and fun.
