Mrs. Brown

Welcome to Fifth Grade! 

My name is Lyndsay Brown and I am originally from Portsmouth, Rhode Island.  Portsmouth is a very little town, completely different from Florence.  I lived there for most of my life, having lived for about a year in Charleston, SC when I was younger.  I graduated from Keene State College, in Keene, New Hampshire with a Bachelors of Science degree in Elementary Education and Geography.  After college, I moved back home to RI and continued to substitute teach as a building substitute. When the time came, I moved to South Carolina in 2007. I love to teach and could not imagine doing anything else. I have been in education since 2007, having taught previously in Marion, South Carolina.  I have taught in Florence 1 Schools schools at Greenwood since 2016.   

I am looking forward to getting to know each and every student in my class and their parents too. It is very important to me that I build a strong relationship with your child and with you, as well. What I teach in the classroom is not just in preparation for exit testing but also to help them prepare for the real world. Our goal, as a school, is to build your child into a college ready or career ready citizen! I greatly encourage communication like phone calls, emails, and visits to the classroom. I am positive that this year will be a great year and your child will leave the 5th grade fully prepared for the middle school next year. I have set high expectations for your child and for myself. I will do everything that I possibly can to see that we all succeed and grow as learners.  I absolutely love what I do and love to see the excitement on my students faces when they come in for the day and their eagerness to learn.  I believe that every child has the potential to grow and that every child's dreams can come true with a little bit of hard work!
