Meet Ms. Powell

Fun fact: I saw the Pacific Ocean for the first time in Venice Beach, California over the summer!

Hi! My name is Cecil Powell and I was named after my grandfather. I grew up in Simpsonville, SC and I currently live in Mauldin, SC with my precious cat, Iggy. She is my baby!

I graduated from the University of South Carolina Upstate with a Bachelor of Arts in Early Childhood Education. GO GAMECOCKS! I am currently pursuing my Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction: The Inclusive Classroom from Concordia University.

I am a product of two loving parents who grew up in the Greenville County School District. I have an older sister, Hilary, who is 26 and a younger brother, Bobby, who is 20. I love spending time with my family and friends. I have worked with children since the age of 14.

This is my second year teaching. I knew I wanted to be a teacher because I enjoy constantly learning new things. I am passionate about sharing my knowledge with my students and I am looking forward to a fantastic year filled with many fun and exciting adventures!
