Hello! My name is Julie Anne Eldred. I am so excited to begin my 16th year teaching Kindergarten here in Lee County. This will be my 9th year at Wacoochee Elementary. 

I grew up in the small, southern town of Thomasville, Georgia where I was very involved in many sports and extracurricular activities at my high school. I am the youngest of four children.

I earned my Bachelors and Masters degree in Early Childhood Education from Auburn University. WAAAAR EAGLE!!!

I am so lucky to be married to my best friend, Joseph Eldred. We have two amazing boys together, Hudson and Chase. Hudson will be in 7th grade this year and Chase will be in 4th grade here at Wacoochee Elementary. They both play travel baseball and keep us very busy!

I am so blessed to have the opportunity to teach young children. It is the most rewarding and fulfilling job to pour into each child and watch them grow in every aspect throughout the year. I truly love my job!
