Hi! I am Stephanie Desjarlais, your child's second grade teacher! This is my 21st year teaching and I couldn't see myself anywhere else. I have taught first and third grades and look forward to learning along side your child in second. I am thrilled to be at Nursery Road Elementary School- Arts Magnet to continue my teaching career.
I attended Columbia College where I received my bachelors' in Early Childhood. I then pursued my master's from Francis Marion University in Instructional Accommodations. Later, I worked and achieved National Board Certification in Literacy and renewed it in 2020.
I am originally from Lexington, but now call Irmo home. I have lived in Irmo since getting married in 2008. My husband and I have two wonderful children who make our life more interesting.
In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends. I also enjoy sleeping in late and eating chocolate.
I am looking forward to a wonderful year in second grade!
