All About Us

About Mrs. Gainey 

I grew up in Gray Court, SC. I attended college at the University of South Carolina Upstate. I graduated with a bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education. This is my 10th year at Riley Center, and I previously taught kindergarten for a total of 13 years in education. My husband, Kevin, and I have one dog named Dixie. In my free time, I love doing CrossFit, running, crafting, traveling, and spending time with my family and friends. I love my Riley family, and you will too!

 I am excited to share my love for learning with my students.
