My name is Stephani Ecklund and I am honored to be an Inclusion Teacher at Bryson Middle School.  Teaching has always been my passion and my career path.  I was born and raised in Illinois, and went to college at Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville, near St. Louis, Missouri.  I graduated with a degree in Special Education.   I taught at a private school for students with Learning Disabilities called “Churchill Center and School “.  I taught there for five years before taking a year and half to be a stay at home mom.  I then moved to South Carolina and worked at the high school level for 4 years, before going back to middle school.    I have been teaching for 20 wonderful years in the field of education.   

In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family, reading, and going to the beach. I have currently taken up bedazzling and gardening.  I have two beautiful twin daughters, Olivia and Sophia. Olivia is a Junior at Presbyterian College.  Sophia is a senior at the Washington Center here in Greenville County.  I am a huge Chicago Bears fan!  I also love the Michigan Wolverines, GO BLUE!!!!
