Hello my name is Maurella Murphy-Morrow I am excited to be teaching 1st grade at Allen! I grew up in Ann Arbor and went to Eastern Michigan University for my bachelors degree and Western Michigan University for my masters degree. My favorite children's book is "Where The Wild Things Are" because I love how the Wild Things and Max have a wild rumpus! In my spare time I enjoy gardening, reading, yoga, and spending time with my husband, my son Jones, and our two cats.
