Hello! My name is Skye Giddens and I am thrilled to be your child's teacher this year! We will spend a lot of time learning together while having fun.
I grew up in Northern Virginia, right outside of Washington, D.C. I am very thankful for the opportunities and education I had there, but I always knew I was meant to be a "Georgia girl." Luckily, the majority of my family lives in Middle Georgia so I have had a lot of practice hunting, fishing, drinking sweet tea, and acclimating to the heat and the wonderful Southern way of life during summers and school breaks.
From a very young age I knew that I was made to work with children to positively impact their lives. I was lucky enough to have been granted a scholarship to Valdosta State University, where I received a Bachelor of Science in Early Childhood Education in May of 2018. I finished my Master's in Elementary Education with a Reading Endorsement in July 2022, and graduated with my Specialist's in Teacher Leadership in December 2023.
This is my eighth year in 3rd grade. I LOVE our team and am thankful to be a part of it!
In addition to working with children, I like to play guitar, read, cook, and spend time with my wonderful family, including my beagle mix, Bowie.
I cannot wait to meet you all!
