Mrs. Peters - RISE – Julie Peters

Welcome to the 2025 - 2026 school year at Siegel Middle School.

I am so excited to partner with you to watch your student grow in their confidence and abilities.

Let me start by telling you a bit about me.

I've been with Rutherford County Schools for 12 years.

I'm married to my wonderful husband of 28 years and together we have two adult sons.

We love to travel, and it is rare to find us at home much during the summer months.

I also enjoy live music, experiencing new foods and any time I get I spend with family and friends.

If you need to reach me for anything at all, please email me [email protected].

We believe every student has the potential to thrive when given the right tools, guidance, and encouragement. Our classroom is a place of second chances, personal growth, and unwavering belief in the power of transformation.
