About+Me

Leann Thacker = = I have been a teacher at Carlisle Schools since 1978-79 school year. I have been lucky enough to teach both in the high school and middle school. I am currently teaching in the high school. My program is called Family and Consumer Sciences (FCS), but it is better known as Home Economics. In today's world we have altered our curriculum to reflect needs of today's families and consumers. We focus on food safety and ease of preparation using fresh, wholesome foods and instead of sewing we have courses in financial management and careers. My education includes Carlisle Local Schools ('74) and The Ohio State University ('78). I also have attended many additional classes over the years at a variety of colleges including Wright State and University of Cincinnati, having accumulated many college credits that have helped me develop skills in computers, technology, management and curriculum. One of my greatest experiences has been as a Teacher Leader in the state which allowed me to work with the best FCS teachers and professors in Ohio. Thank you for allowing me to be in this school district and teaching your children for 35 years. I always enjoy seeing my students from the past so please stop in and see me.
