My favorite teacher was my third-grade teacher, Mrs. White, at Dodge Elementary School,” Wynn Nobles shared. “One small act of kindness from my third-grade teacher has always stuck with me. One day, when I was sick, she put me on her lap until my dad could come get me. She comforted me and showed compassion. It motivates me to pay it forward.”
Mrs. Nobles is now a third-grade teacher at Daphne East Elementary School, and she is paying it forward. She was nominated as the Eastern Shore Parents Teacher of the Month by several individuals.
“Mrs. Wynn Nobles is so caring towards her students,” describes Mandy Warren, who has a student in her classroom. “She goes the extra mile to be sure they comprehend what they are learning and keeps parents informed phenomenally.”
Mrs. Nobles teaches her class early on in the year that they are a family and implements core values to help establish that bond.
“I believe in educating the whole child-academically, socially, and emotionally, shared Mrs. Nobles. “Students show respect to the teacher and one another, show kindness, learn from their mistakes, and do their best. That’s how I live my life, and I try to model those traits for my students. I also share a lot of my experiences with them. Regarding academics, I like ‘hands-on’ learning and try my best to make learning fun!”
Mrs. Nobles has been teaching for 15 years and has taught first, second, and third grade at a few different schools in the Baldwin County School System. Her ultimate goal is to become a Reading Intervention Teacher.
“I am from a family of educators. My parents are amazing and have been the biggest influences in my life,” said Mrs. Nobles. “My mother was an elementary school principal and teacher. My father worked in higher education for the University of South Alabama. My sister, Mary Catherine, is a former teacher and the principal at Orange Beach Elementary School. I am very proud to be a teacher. It feels like a calling to me.”
Wynn Nobles has been married to her husband, Stewart, for 26 years. They have three daughters, all in their twenties, who are excelling in their early careers and educational pursuits. They also have two dogs that they love to spoil. The Nobles enjoy spending time with their dogs, cooking, traveling, watching SEC Football, and long walks on Mobile Bay.
