D.D. Ward & Josh Howard

I completed my B.A. in English Education at U.S.M. in December of 2002. I then began working on my Master's degree in English at William Carey College. I received my M. Ed. in the summer of 2005. While working on my Master's, I became employed by the Laurel School District and have been teaching English at Laurel High School since August of 2003. I married Josh Howard after my first year of teaching (June 12, 2004). We experienced the loss of a child, Joseph Ward Howard, in January of 2006, but God blessed us with the arrival of our little Donnie last summer. He is now 10 months old and on the go!
