Hello, my name is Bailey Hinkle and I am very excited to be a part of the Mallory Elementary team as a fourth grade teacher. Before joining the fourth grade team at Buffalo, I was an instructional technologist, tutor, and summer school teacher. I enjoy using technology and I look forward to implementing technology in my class. I studied elementary education at Missouri Southern State University in Joplin, Missouri. Currently, I am taking graduate courses at Missouri Southern State University learning about English Language Learners.

When I am not teaching, I am with my family and friends, reading, listening to music,  volunteering at church, or working on my graduate courses. I grew up in Pleasant Hope, Missouri and I found that I like being a part of tight knit communities. I anticipate joining the Buffalo community and teaching at Mallory Elementary School.
