My name is Sarah Youngblood and I am a Special Education Teacher at Martin Middle School.  I graduated from Auburn University in 2005 with a degree in Psychology and a minor in Social Work.  I started my first job with Easter Seals of West Central Alabama Rehabilitation Center with the Special Preschool Education Center (SPEC).  We contracted with the Selma City Schools and Dallas County Schools to provide their preschool services for students with disabilities ages 3 - 5.  After working there for 10 years, I moved to Head Start and was the Disabilities Manager for 2 years, where I worked closely with Dr. Streeter of the Dallas County Schools and realized my dream of becoming a Special Education Teacher was possible.  I I took a position at Martin Middle School for the 2016-2017 school year and Graduated with my Masters from Grand Canyon University in March 2018.  I am currently continuing my education by working to become a Registered Behavior Technician (RBT).  I love my job, school, faculty, and especially the students!!!
