Meet the Teacher 

Welcome to a brand-new school year! My name is Austin Pagerly, and I am beyond excited to join the Grovetown Middle School family here in Columbia County. As a proud graduate of Georgia Southern University, I am thrilled to kick off my very first year of teaching in such an incredible community. My goal is to build a supportive, engaging, and dynamic classroom where every student feels encouraged to learn, grow, and succeed every single day.

Outside of the classroom, I am a die-hard Philadelphia Phillies fan, so you can count on me cheering them on all season long! When I'm not in the classroom or watching baseball, you'll almost certainly find me out on the golf course, which is hands-down my favorite hobby. Above all, my world revolves around my dog, Oakley, who is truly my son, you can definitely expect to see plenty of pictures of him throughout the year!

I strongly believe that a successful school year is built on teamwork between teachers, students, and parents. I can’t wait to get to know all of my students to make this year both fun and memorable with lots of Laerning. Please feel free to reach out to me anytime with questions or just to say hello. Let's make it a fantastic year at Grovetown Middle!
