Room 136 - Mr. Palmer

SMASH Rally at Bel Air Elem.
Mr. Palmer smashing a brick at a SOL Rally.

My name is Clifton Palmer. This will be my 16th year teaching in Prince William County. I previously taught at Kerrydale Elementary for two years and Bel Air Elementary for thirteen years. The majority of my teaching experience is in 4th grade. I have two sons who attend school in Manassas City Public Schools. I also serve the Manassas community as a baseball coach for GMBL (Greater Manassas Baseball League) so you might see me at the fields. 

I am eager to start a new chapter in my teaching career at Mullen Elementary. I know that I need to earn the trust of my students, parents, and colleagues. I look forward to start this new adventure with everybody.

Class Announcements

We have a field trip to the Tech Lab at Cedar Point Elementary on Tuesday, September 25.
