Welcome to 5th Grade at Gadsden Elementary Magnet School! My name is Ms. LaTasha Dilworth-Porter or Ms. DP.

This is my 17th year teaching! This is my 12th year at Gadsden Elementary Magnet School. I taught Kindergarten for 5 years at George W. Munroe Elementary.

As we enter our 2021 - 2022 school year, things will look quite different. This does not change the rigor of instruction your child will receive, however, we will need you and your child to work with us, as this is new to us ALL.
