Ms. Chanel Haynes

Welcome to 1st Grade! We are the Haynes Highfliers and our moto is to "Set Your mind on things above".  (hot air balloons)

My name is, Chanel Haynes, I am the First Grade Lead Teacher at Harbison West Elementary School. I am originally from New Jersey born and raised. I have a wonderful daughter that is the joy of my life.

This is my 15th year teaching; but 7th year in District 5. I have previously taught 1st, 2nd, 3rd, and Reading/ Math Intervention. I graduated from Benedict College with a Bachelors degree and Walden University with a Masters degree. I enjoy swimming, basketball, tennis, bike riding, reading, cooking, gardening, creating, building, singing, family time, and helping my students make connections in their learning.  

I am so excited to be apart of an awesome school and community!
