WELCOME TO 2ND GRADE

I am so excited to be your child’s 2nd grade teacher this year! This year, my goal is to make everything we are learning fun and exciting in a warm, safe, and inviting environment. I love to develop relationships with each of my students though they will only share my classroom for a year. 


ABOUT ME

This is my eighth year teaching and third year in South Carolina. Before Woodland, I taught second grade in Chesterfield County, Virginia. I am so excited to be a part of the Wildcat family! I received my Bachelors degree in Communication Studies from Clemson University (Go Tigers!) and hold a Bachelors degree in Early and Primary Education from the University of Virginia. I am currently enrolled back at my alma mater for my ESOL endorsement. 


In my time outside the classroom, I love to spend time with my family, cook, and travel. A few of my favorite things are the color purple, Junie B Jones, Sour Patch Kids, and of course all things Clemson! 


Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or concerns. You may reach me at Woodland at (864) 355-0463 or by email at jesmartin@greenville.k12.sc.us. My office hours this year are 9:10- 9:50 daily. 


Your support is very important to me and I look forward to working together to make this year meaningful and memorable for your child as we watch them grow academically, personally, and as leaders.
