I'm Katie Grigsby and I am the Gifted and Talented teacher at Dixie! This is my eighth year teaching, and I couldn't work at a better school! Dixie is even extra special to me, because it is where my husband and I both went to elementary school! I graduated from UK in 2006, and have recently finished my Master's Degree in Gifted Education at Western Kentucky University. In my spare time, I love hanging out with my two precious sons.
