My name is Keri Lewis and I am excited to be part of the Woodland community. This will be my 21st year teaching, and my second year at Woodland. I graduated from USC Spartanburg (Upstate) with my BA and M.Ed degrees in Early Childhood Education. I taught K4 at Golden Strip CDC for 5 years, K5 for 12 years and 3rd grade for 2 years at Taylors Elementary. This will be my fourth year teaching 3rd grade. I've lived in the Taylors/Greer area my entire life. I am a product of Greenville County Schools attending Mitchell Road Elementary, Greenville Middle, and Eastside High School (1995). I am a huge arts advocate and incorporate music and art into the curriculum as much as possible. I believe that play and exploration are vital to the education of young children, even 3rd graders! We learn through our experiences and our senses and I enjoy finding ways to bring those experiences into the classroom.
I am married to Jeremy and we have 2 children. Ava is in 10th grade at Riverside High and Joshua is in 7th grade at Riverside Middle. We have chickens and a Miniature Schnauzer named Hipper. When I'm not teaching I enjoy traveling, going to the beach, shopping, singing, baking, and crafting. Most weekends you'll find cheering on my son's AAU basketball games or thrift store shopping with my daughter. I am so excited about this school year and can’t wait to get to know and love each and every one of your precious children!
Some of my favorite things are: chocolate, coffee, stationery and journals, pens, Mexican food, flowers, plants and the color green.
**I am always very appreciative of any gifts that are given. However, it is important to note that I am deathly allergic to bees and bee products (especially anything with beeswax or propolis). I kindly ask that you refrain from sending anything that is made with bee products, including honey.
