My name is Auburn McJunkin. This is my sixteenth year of teaching, and my tenth year at Lake Forest Elementary.  My teaching experience includes a variety of grades ranging from K4 through sixth grade in South Carolina schools.  I received my Elementary Education Degree from Clemson University, and I am certified to teach both Early Childhood and Elementary Education.

I teach with the philosophy that all children should be given the opportunity to learn in an environment that is safe and nurturing.  Each child is capable of problem-solving, creative thinking, communicating, and making responsible choices.  As a teacher, I desire to expose children to various instructional strategies and involve them actively in the learning process.  It is my privilege to be part of your child's education!

My husband and I have three children.  We enjoy playing with our Standard Poodle named Winston, watching Clemson football, taking walks, seeing new places, camping, and watching movies together.
