Hello, my name is Codie Wright. I am so excited about teaching third grade AGP at Leaphart Elementary School. This is my seventh year of teaching. I am from the small town of Chester, South Carolina. Growing up, I attended Chester County Public Schools through 7th grade. From there, I transferred to Richard Winn Academy and graduated high school in 2013.
I began my journey to teaching at the University of South Carolina, where I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Elementary Education. During my time at USC I was blessed to be a SC Teaching Fellow! GO GAMECOCKS! Now, it is an amazing honor to be a USC Coaching Teacher and help mentor pre-service teachers.
I reside in Irmo with my husband, David, and our precious Cavapoo, Murray. In my free time I love traveling, spending time with family and friends, and reading. I also enjoy being outdoors, on the lake, and going on walks with Murray.
Our priority this year will be teaching our students in a safe and loving environment where each student feels valued. My goal is to share my passion and love of learning with all of my bright students! I look forward to helping my students become lifelong learners that are respectful, responsible, and ready to learn each day! I consider myself a lifelong learner as well. I cannot wait to dive into this new adventure together!
