A Little More Detail
Personality: Elizabeth Anne is a very strict, conservative woman. She expects to receive great respect from her students. With these parameters, she does not seem to be a very fun soul. Even when she was younger, she was never the 'scene of the party'. She is not one to let loose. Her parents raised her to be an upstanding citizen... and that is what she is.

Elizabeth cares greatly for her daughter and therefore can seem very overprotective. She especially became overprotective when Annabelle was thirteen.

The students tend to not like Elizabeth, as she does seem very strict. She sets very harsh rules and expects the students to follow them. That being said, Elizabeth is a very fair person and doesn't really have 'favorite' students.
History: Elizabeth Anne was born in Gaffney, SC on a cool April 21 in the year 1958. She grew up in a mill village, and that being said, her parents were not the most wealthy of people. She was their only child and they wanted the best for her. In school, they required her to retain high marks so that she could one day go off to college with a good scholarship. Elizabeth grew up under very strict standards and her parents were very religious. This transcended into her later life. Elizabeth won a scholarship to attend a small woman's liberal arts college and pursued a Bachelors Degree in History. From there, she picked up a job as a teacher in a small girl's school in Connecticut. While teaching, Elizabeth pursued more degrees and eventually came out with a Doctorate in American History. After spending 23 years as a teacher, she was offered the position of Head of School at the Girl's School in Connecticut. While there, Elizabeth became involved with a man named John Roberts. At first, Elizabeth loved being around John. She even considered marrying him. However, Elizabeth's daughter showed a strong disliking to John. Elizabeth understood why, when her daughter told her and she decided to end her relationship with John. John wouldn't have it. Eventually, things escalated with John and Elizabeth felt that it was in her best interest to leave the school. Around that time, the Headmistress position opened at Marietta. Elizabeth happily filled it.

Elizabeth never married, but she did adopt a daughter. She had always loved kids. She had always wanted one of her own. When she realized that there wasn't anyone in her near romantic future, she decided to adopt a girl from Russia. She named her Annabelle. Annabelle is now 15 years old and will be entering Marietta as a sophomore.

Appearance: Elizabeth dresses very professionally. She has long, dark brown hair. She keeps it very nice and clean-looking, and as such, she expects all of her students to do the same. She often wears dark skirts and clean, white blouses. Sometimes she will wear a dress and heals. She isn't a huge fan of the pants-suit, as she feels that that outfit is not conservative enough. She expects her students to dress conservatively and is very strict about this.

She has rather light skin, but she looks young for her age. At 53 years old, she looks like she could be in her early forties. This is due to her taking care of her body. She never was a smoker or a drinker and it now shows. Her eyes are a hazel brown.

Something had come over Emma Lee. She wasn't in the right place. In fact, she really wasn't sure where exactly she was supposed to be, but she knew that she was supposed to be near the music department. Or at least that was what someone had told her. She wasn't sure if the alleged music department was anywhere near the dance studios and she was starting to doubt it. Emma Lee did not enjoy being lost. She preferred to know what exactly was going on. She liked to have control in her life, and right now, she felt like she had lost that control. Being in a new place can do that to a person. She was in a new state, a new city, a new school, a new dance program. She didn't know anyone or anything. She simply knew that she wasn't in South Carolina.

Oh, how she missed South Carolina at this particular moment in time. She had never noticed the thick southern accent that she possessed. At home it was normal, natural even. She had often heard people make fun of yankees, but she never realized how true those criticisms were. She really had difficulty understanding the fast-speaking northerners and when she went to get tea, if had come back with no sugar. That absolutely perplexed her.

So she found herself completely lost. It was raining outside, quite heavily. It was pretty rare for Emma Lee to get this much rain back at home. She hoped that it wouldn't be an often occurrence.

Not sure where to go, she found a door that lead inside and she walked in. There was a single boy in there who was playing a large brass instrument. Emma Lee knew it as the tuba. She had spent the past several years as a minor part of her school's band playing the Clarinet, but she had never really given it any emphasis. It was just an easy A class that allowed her to occasionally skip class for an outside performance.

"Oh, I'm sorry..." she said as she backed up to leave. She was interrupting his practice time. Emma Lee knew that she hated it when someone would interrupt her dancing.
