My name is Nancy Shafer and I am the new ESL teacher at Cox Mill High School.  I am a "retired teacher" who can't stay away from the classroom!  I moved to North Carolina from Ohio in 2005.  I started my career in North Carolina teaching in Cabarrus County Schools as an elementary teacher at both Bethel and Charles E. Boger Elementary Schools.  I am a certified Elementary teacher with a Master's Degree and National Board Certification.  As a challenge from a fellow teacher I also earned ESL certification.  As an ESL teacher, I have taught in Kannapolis City Schools as well as the Charlotte Mecklenberg School system until I retired in 2018.  I have been fortunate to teach EL students in grades K-6.  I very much look forward to teaching and helping the ELL students at Cox Mill High School.
