Bria Jackson-Drakeford
Special  Education Teacher
Southside High School




My name is Bria Jackson-Drakeford. I was born in Maryland, but have lived in South Carolina since I was two years old. I graduated from Riverside High School in 2012. I actually met my husband when we attended Riverside Middle School. I attended Lander University where I earned my Bachelor's degree in Sociology emphasizing in Criminal Justice and minored in Political Science. I received my Masters degree in Human Services Counseling from Liberty University in May of 2020. 


I have three children: Jaxson 6, Maverick 1 almost 2, Denver 8 weeks old. We do not have any pets YET! My goal is to have a mini farm/homestead! In my spare time I love to read, write, watch movies/tv series, and be outdoors. I absolutely love the holiday season and my favorite holidays of all are my children's birthdays. I love cooking with my husband and baking new recipes. 


I am super excited to get this year started and cannot wait to get to know all of you!
