Hey y'all! My name is Lynn Ayers, and I graduated from Lee University '94 with my undergraduate degree in Christian Education and then from Anderson University in December 2018 with a Master of Art in Teaching. I will begin attending Furman University this fall to get my ED.s in Educational Leadership. I have experience teaching 4th grade Math/Science/Social Studies, as a 3rd grade teacher at Cherrydale for six years, and this is my first year as a 5th grade teacher at Cherrydale. I have been married for 30 years to Erick, and we have three awesome kids. Carly is 24 and is getting married in October.  Sam is 21, a senior at Lee University majoring in Communications with an Advertising Focus with a minor in Graphic Design. Walker is 17, a senior in high school and plays whatever sport is in season but his passion is football, and he plays on the varsity team at Powdersville High School. Erick and I are also Children's Pastors and have served in the upstate for 20+ years. We have two dogs, Beau (6), Walker's dog, Maverick (5 months) a cat, Miss Kitty (3), and our class pet hamster, Princess Buttercup. My hobbies include spending time with my family, reading, sitting on the beach, and hunting waterfalls. As a family, we enjoy going on mission trips locally, or to Cherokee, Honduras and Montana.

 I am very excited to get to know your child this year and learn all the things they like and most importantly....watching them grow and succeed!
