All About Me

My name is Brenda Hilbert, and I've been teaching at Bryson Elementary School (the BEST school on the planet) for 30 years. Yes, that's the truth --- 30 years! Twenty-five of those years have been in first grade, so you know that my passion is to serve the younger ones at our school. I received my bachelor's degree in Elementary Education from Bob Jones University and earned my Early Childhood Certification from Furman University. My teaching certificate is classified as Highly Qualified.

I married my college sweetheart, Steve, who shares my passion for teaching. He serves students on the other end of the spectrum at JL Mann High School in Greenville. We have two grown children.

What's special about me? In the summers I enjoy traveling and fly fishing with my husband. We worship together at Beth Haven Baptist Church. I love flowers, dragonflies, sunshine, the mountains, waterfalls, a starry night, gently falling snow, herbal teas, chocolate smoothies, old friends, new friends, and smiling children.
