Hello! My name is Sabrina De Simone and I am very excited to be joining the multiage program this year. This will be my third year at Bethel and my 7th year teaching. I have a Master's degree in Learning and Technology and a Bachelor's in Elementary Education, both from Western Governors University. I moved to Greenville a little over two years ago, with my wonderful husband Massimo, and our kids after living in the Charleston area for about 5 years. I have two kids: Diego will be a 6th grader at Ralph Chandler this year and Julia will be a 3rd grader here at Bethel.
During my free time, I enjoy hiking, gardening, and reading... but my absolute favorite thing to do is travel around the world and learn about different cultures! A fun fact about me is I grew up in Italy and am fluent in Italian!
Welcome! My name is Megan Phillips. I graduated from Winthrop University with my Bachelor of Arts in Dance Education in 2012 and from Oklahoma State University with my Master of Science in Elementary Education in 2015. I taught 5th grade at Bethel for three years (2015-2018) before moving to California for a few years and returned in 2020 specifically to teach IMA. This will be my 7th year teaching, and I have a special passion for including creativity, curiosity, and the arts in learning.
My amazing husband Quinton and I live in Wellford with my sweet boxer Artemis, an energetic chihuahua Bruce, and a talkative cat named Aston. My hobbies are baking, hiking, trying out watersports, writing (I’ve started a kids’ fantasy novel!), reading, and spending time with family and friends.
