Hi! My name is Terra Goodbody and I am so excited to be a part of Fairhope Elementary School…Go Pirates!

I am originally from the small town of Kinston, Alabama. After high school, I attended The University of Alabama and graduated in 2001 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Early Childhood/Elementary Education. In 2009, I received a Master’s Degree in Reading Education from Georgia Southern University.  I have been teaching elementary school for the past fifteen years. I have taught Kindergarten, First, Second, Third, and Fourth Grades in Alabama, Georgia, Alaska, and North Carolina. My family and I moved back to the area in July of 2016.  We are thrilled to be back home in Alabama!

I am married to Brian and we have two sons, Braeden (9) and Caleb (5).  We also have two Labrador Retrievers (Jersey and Mason). In my free time, I enjoy reading, watching football (Roll Tide!), and spending time with my family. 

My goal as a teacher is to educate, motivate, and inspire students to value lifelong learning.
