SANDY RUN ELEMENTARY SCHOOL

St Matthews, SC

I have entered my 10 year of teaching! This is a second career for me. I was previously a convenience store manager for about 17 years. I have degree in Business Management and a Master's in Elementary Education. I love American History and spend a good amount of my time traveling through out the US. I also love reading historical fiction and teaching science. Iam tickled most days that I come to work and do something I truly love and would do would do for free if I could!
