Mrs. Privette was such a wonderful and loving person. She was my husband´s Kindergarten teacher at Louisburg Elementary in 1984 and my teacher that very next year in 1985. She made learning so exciting. No one had a "housekeeping center" as fun as Mrs. Privette´s! She definitely inspired me as a very young child to have the dream of becoming an elementary teacher. We are so blessed to have been touched by her love and kindness.

I taught with Janet at Zebulon Elementary School . I will always remember Janet as one of the nicest people I have ever met. Janet was always smiling always lööking for ways to make a bad situation better. Janet also taught my son Jeremy. Janet was a Kind and patient teacher. Janet was a true angel. I will miss her kindness .
