I am Mrs. Mary-EllenThompson and I am married to a wonderful husband; Chuck and we have two amazing daughters.  Katie, (27) is a graduate of USC and lives and works in Washington D.C. Emma, (25) is also a graduate of USC and works in Columbia. Since the girls are grown, we have increased our love for dogs to make up for the empty house.

I have recently returned to school to receive my Masters Degree in Education. This is my second year teaching 1st grade. I have 18 years experience in an elementary school setting and I have a strong passion for working with students.  It is my mission to instill a love for learning. I want my students to become life long learners ready to change the world!
