Hello, and welcome to second grade!  I am thrilled to be living and learning with your child this year.  Our classroom theme is the PROUD PEACOCKS and we will spend a lot of time noticing and celebrating our unique qualities as we become a classroom family.  My goal is to grow each child to their highest potential through the creation of strong relationships, meaningful learning activities, and parternships with parents.  Second grade is an imporant year in your child's learning career, and one where I am to keep them both structured and also excited for school.  I am looking forward to spending my days with your most precious gifts!

I was born and raised in Kentucky, but am proud to now call South Carolina home.  I am married to Michael, and have two boys, Colton (10) and Hampton (5).  Both of my children attend schools in District 5, as well.  I have taught for 15 years in the district, and worked in grades second-fifth, at various schools.  I am blessed to have landed at DFES! In my spare time, I love doing family activities, reading, visiting my parents in Tennessee, decorating, being outside, and walking my basset hound, Ellie.  I am also an avid writer and working on publishing a book or two in the near future.

Thank you for trusting me to grow, educate, and inspire your child.  I will update this site as needed, but also send weekly newsletters about what we are learning, helpful websites, photos, and more.  Feel free to reach me at MReeves@lexrich5.org, anytime. Let's make this the best year ever!
