Hello 1st and 2nd Grade Parents! My name is Mrs. Carrie Harrison and I am
delighted to be your child’s teacher at Dearborn Christian School. We are going to have lots of fun this
year! I am looking forward our many learning adventures. I know you are probably wondering about me,
so here it is…
I was born in Nashville, TN and my family moved to Michigan
when I was 5 years old. I grew up in
Allen Park with Christian parents who love the Lord. I am the eldest of three children and also
the only girl. When I was 9 years old I accepted Christ into my life as my personal Savior. I grew up playing “school”
with my little brothers and always knew that I wanted to be a teacher. After graduating High School I began studying
at Henry Ford Community College. After
earning my Associate Degree in Elementary Education, I transferred to Wayne
State University to complete my Bachelor Degree and earn my certification.
During my final semester of college, I married my best
friend and love of my life Jason Harrison.
Our families went to Friendship Baptist where we met when we were 5
years old. On September 30th we
will be married 6 years. Jason and I
have two busy little boys. Carson is 3 years
old and Lyron is 1. Carson is our little
Mr. Independent and Lyron is our Mommy’s Boy.
We also have a white and tan shih-tzu dog named Dudley who loves
to steal as many kisses as possible! Our
family still attends Friendship Baptist where Jason serves as the Minister of
Music.
I have been working with kids most my life. I love those little teachable moments in the
day that are not always the ones you plan.
I have served as a teacher in my church for over 10 years and still
continue with an added responsibility as the Education Director there the last 2 years. I have taught K-2 Science classes for a local
Homeschool Co-Op group and substitute taught in many downriver districts. Also, I have tutored students out of my home
for over 6 years.
This year should be a GREAT one! Please feel free to stop in any time to say hello. I look forward to getting to know your family! See you soon!
