3rd Grade Team

There's is just nothing quite like watching that "lightbulb" go off on a student's face!

That in itself is what caused me to fall in love with education. After completing my Bachelor's degree in 2008 in Elementary Education (2 years at Clemson University (Go Tigers! 🐾) & 2 years at SEU), I joined the McKeel team and have never skipped a beat! Through music, hands on activities, technology, and small groups, I will always strive my best to meet the needs of all individual learners. My classroom is a fun, family-like atmosphere in which students should feel comfortable to be themselves and KNOW that they belong. As new resources and information arise, I long to continuously improve my skills and knowledge as an educator. As a way to strive as a life-long learner, I have earned a Master's degree from USF in Educational Leadership (2012) and a Master's degree from SEU in Elementary Education (2015). There's always more to learn! Time DEFINITELY flies when you're having fun! As I embark on my tenth year teaching, I look forward to new,exciting activities and units that we will complete this year!
