About Mrs. May

My name is Shelley May.  I live in Peru with my husband Brandon and two boys Nolan and Griffin.    

I graduated from Illinois State University in 1997 with a degree in Early Childhood Education.  Following my semester of student teaching in kindergarten at Roosevelt, I was hired for the Title I reading position.  The following year, I trained for Reading Recovery, a program for first grade students.  I loved working in the area of Reading and went on to receive a Masters Degree in Reading from ISU.  In 2010, I was proud to receive the Anne Roffol Excellence in Reading Recovery Teaching Award from ISU.  I continue to have a passion for teaching Reading Recovery and Small Group interventions to those who need extra support.  I believe all children can learn!

If at any time you have questions or concerns, please feel free to call me at 223-2567.  Also, you are welcome to visit and view a lesson.  I look forward to working with you and your child this year.  Together we will help further develop your child’s skills and confidence in reading and writing.
