Hi, my name is Patricia Norris, but everyone calls me Patti! This will be my 19th year teaching. I have taught kindergarten, first, second, and third grade, as well as worked as a Reading Interventionist in second, third, fourth, and fifth grade. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Interdisciplinary Studies from the University of South Carolina and my Master of Education in Divergent Learning from Columbia College. I have a Gifted and Talented Endorsement and am a Google Certified Educator.

My husband’s name is Robby, and I have a beautiful daughter named Sarah, who is a graduate student at the University of South Carolina. I also have a cat named Crystal and two grandcats named Jasper and Jade. I enjoy going to the beach, reading, and playing board games, and my favorite thing to do is spend time with my family.
