Mrs. Rector

Welcome to the FIFTH GRADE! My name is Jacqueline Rector. I would like to take this opportunity to tell you a little bit about myself.

I have lived in the Greer/Taylors area all of my life. I graduated from Winthrop University in Rock Hill, SC with a Bachelors of Science degree in Elementary Education. This will be my 26th year of teaching, and this will be my twenty-first  year at Chandler Creek. I have taught 2nd, 4th, and 5th grades. This will be my 18th year teaching 5th grade. I recently represented Chandler Creek as the 2019-2020 Distinguished Teacher of Literacy.  I was honored in 2007 by being named the 2007 Wal-Mart Teacher of the Year for Greer area schools. I was also named PTA Teacher of the Year in 2010-2011 for Chandler Creek Elementary School.  I was also awarded with Magic 98.9's Teachers That Spread Magic Award in 2016. 

I am married to a wonderful man named Paul. I have a handsome and energetic son named Matthew who is twenty-one years old (goodness, how time flies). He recently graduated from NGU and is beginning his teaching career  as a second grade teacher at Westcliffe Elementary.  I am so excited for him!

I am very excited to have your child in my class! I am looking forward to a wonderful year with your child as we achieve success. I hope that you and your child are also excited. The fifth grade curriculum is rigorous, engaging, and fun.

I feel very honored to be a member of the faculty here at Chandler Creek Elementary. Chandler Creek Elementary is an inviting and welcoming school.

If you have any questions or concerns throughout the year, please do not hesitate to contact me. You may email me at: jhrector@greenville.k12.sc.us, call me directly at the school at 864-355-2467 or simply send a note with your child.
