Hello! My name is Renee Gering and this will be my fifth year teaching. My first two years I spent teaching fifth grade in Spartanburg County. This will be my third year here at Skyland teaching second grade and I could not be more excited. I am originally from the the Southern Pennsylvania/ Northern Maryland area, but am so glad my journey has brought me here to Greenville!
Education
I graduated from the University of Charleston in West Virginia in 2021. I received a dual bachelors degree in Elementary Education and Special Education. Here in South Carolina, I am certified in Early Childhood Education, Elementary Education and Special Education. While at UC, I also played lacrosse!
I finished my Master's of Education in Literacy through American College of Education this past Novemeber.
Outside of School
Outside of school, you can find me working out, cooking, baking, or spending time with friends!
I also am a huge traveler! This past summer I went on a two week trip to Egypt & Greece with my mom and sister. I have also been to several places all over the U.S. I love experiencing a new city!
I also have a sweet kitten, Mali, and puppy, Kora at home.
