Hi there! 

   My name is Ms. Megan Gowen. I am excited to be a part of your student's learning journey as their math and science teacher. 

   This is my 5th year as a part of the Taliaferro County family. I graduated Magna Cum Laude from Piedmont College with a bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education.

   I currently hold a S.T.E.M endorsement and working towards obtaining my master's degree in Curriculum and Design from Valdosta State University

   Outside of school, I can be found in my kitchen experimenting with a new dish or out exploring.  I work closely with the local animal shelter and take pride in helping foster the four-legged citizens of our community. 

Let's have a fantastic year!
