My name is Michelle McClellan.  I am very excited that I get to teach 6th grade ELA this year.  This is my twenty-second year as a teacher.  I previously taught in Las Vegas, NV and Sue Cleveland Elementary in Piedmont, SC.  I have my teaching certification for the state of South Carolina for early and elementary education, literacy teaching and administration.  I am a highly qualified literacy teacher.  The college I attended was BYU-Idaho, in which I received my bachelor’s degree in early and elementary education.  In May of 2017, I graduated from Clemson with my Masters in administration and leadership.  

I have taught first grade for 13 years, 3rd grade for 6 years, 7th grade ELA for 1 year and reading intervention for 1.  I love to read and I am excited to teach 6th grade ELA so that I can share my passion for reading.   

Some of my favorite things are chocolate, movies, reading, exercising and shopping.  I love spending time with my family.  

I know that we are going to have a great year!  We have a lot to learn, so please come each day prepared to be engaged in the learning process.
