About Me

           My name is Arifah Howell.  I've been a part of Greenville County Schools for over 17 years.  I have been here at Bryson Elementary School for the past 6 years.  My husband and I both enjoy maintaining our mega garden.  I'm originally  from the state of Michigan.  

          I have four children;  my son  graduated from Clemson as a wildlife biology major.   My youngest daughter is finished her double major at Clemson in animal science and French.  She is preparing to go to vet school.   My middle daughter is studying criminal justice and works as a retail manager.  My oldest daughter is working on her animal science degree in Arizona. 

         I have a home business of 10 years, teaching arts and crafts at several assisted living and memory care facilities.  

       Working with children and the elderly are my biggest passions! I enjoy taking each and everyone of our students down  the road to success... full STEAM ahead
