Meet Mrs. Dorsey
I am Misty Chesser Dorsey, Calhoun High School graduate. I have an A. S. in Criminal Justice, a B. S. in Early Childhood Education, a M. Ed. in Technology in Education, an Ed. S. in Teaching and Learning.  I have also received a Gifted Endorsement and an ESOL Endorsement through Northwest Georgia RESA.  I have been teaching in Calhoun City Schools since 2003. I began at CES as a 3rd grade teacher. I have also taught several other things at CES:  5th grade, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade EIP Reading and Math.  I also taught Technology at Calhoun High School for two years, including such things as Graphic Arts and Video Production.  I am married to Mr. Scott Dorsey, who is also a teacher at CES!  I have two cats (Baby Kitty & Leo), a Miniature Dachshund (Molly), and a wonderful step-son, Tristan, who attends Cartersville High School. In my free time, I love to garden, read, swim, and spend time with my friends and family.  I look forward to sharing the upcoming year in Discovery with you!  Please feel free to contact me at anytime.

Class Introduction
I am excited to get to spend the year with you as the Discovery teacher! There are several goals for Discovery.  Through out our time together, we will work on developing research and communication skills. We will also work within integrated units to practice creative and critical thinking skills, as well as creative and logical problem solving skills.  We will also work with others in our class to help develop an understanding of self and how one’s unique characteristics influences interactions with others. This year’s focus will be on Math and Architecture.  These units will be filled with many different types of activities to involve everyone and to help you show your strengths!
