Hello! My name is Kelli Kirk. This is my 26th year teaching in Columbia County. This is my fourth year at River Ridge Elementary. I have taught 1st grade, 3rd grade, 4th grade, and EIP.  I am very excited about teaching third grade again this year! 

I received my undergraduate degree from the University of Georgia.  Go Dawgs!!  This is also where I met my husband many years ago. My husband, Tommy, teaches at Stallings Island Middle School.  My son (Ethan) is a freshman in college and my daughter (Emerson) is a seventh grader at SIMS. Our last family member is Kirby, our Bernedoodle.
