A graduate from Faulkner University, Jennifer Robinson decided to stay in Montgomery and start a successful career as a teacher. She was recently honored by her alma mater as the College of Education’s Young Alumna of the Year.
After graduating from Faulkner in the fall of 2014, Jennifer began substituting for Montgomery Public Schools. While substituting, she was offered a paraprofessional position at Dozier Elementary from March to May 2015.
