My name is Rachel Howle. I graduated from Erskine College with a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood and Elementary Education. I received my masters in education from Carson- Newman University in Leadership and Administration. I believe that within a classroom it is important to love first and teach second. This belief has led me to have as successful classroom environment for, the last eleven years. I am looking forward to our new year at Sugar Ridge Elementary! I love to travel and spend time with family; my husband Kenneth, our two sons Josh and Teddy, and our dog Cricket. During my free time I love to read and cheer on the Clemson Tigers.
