Welcome to Challenge! My name is Kim Gregory and I am so excited to work with your child in Challenge at Bryson Elementary School! I live in Five Forks with my husband and 4 children (7th grade, 11th grade and 2 in college). I also have 2 Golden Retrievers and 1 cat. It's a zoo in my house most nights, but I wouldn't have it any other way! Outside of teaching, I love spending time with my family and doing anything related to cheer or the beach.
I have been teaching for over 15 years. Other than teaching Challenge, I have taught Kindergarten, 2nd grade, 4th grade, 7th grade ELA and 8th grade ELA. I also spent several years at the district office as a teacher evaluator. Currently (and for the past 10 years) I am an adjunct instructor for Arizona University in the education department and have previously worked at Johns Hopkins University.
Throughout the year I will communicate through monthly class newsletters as well as weekly Class Dojo updates. Be sure to join Class Dojo as I regularly post pictures and videos of the students learning, working and playing.
Thank you for the opportunity to work with your child and your family this year. I look forward to watching each student grow in independence and responsibility. This year promises to be full of memories to cherish. Feel free to contact me at any time through Class Dojo or via email at kagregory@greenville.k12.sc.us
