Miss Pendergraft & Mrs. Alvarez

Hi! My name is Lily Pendergraft, and I’m so excited to be your child’s Kindergarten teacher this year. I grew up in Southern California and am now happy to call Greenville home. I earned my degree in Early Childhood Education from the University of South Carolina (Go Gamecocks!). I’m currently pursuing my master’s degree, also from the University of South Carolina, in Language and Literacy with a concentration in ESOL. I have a passion for helping young learners grow in confidence, curiosity, and independence. Outside of the classroom, I enjoy spending time with family and friends, reading, shopping, hot yoga, and staying active! 

Hi, my name is Jenny Alvarez. As I embark on my second year at Alexander, I am filled with excitement for the new experiences and growth this year. With over seven years dedicated to working with children, I am proud to hold certifications in both Early Childhood Education and Bilingual Education. These credentials have allowed me to connect with and support a diverse range of young learners and their families.
