Welcome to Mrs. Craddock's Third Grade Class!

I am looking forward to a wonderful year and am so excited to have your child in my class! I was born and raised in Florence, SC. I graduated from Francis Marion University with a degree in Elementary Education and a concentration in Political Science. I started my teaching career in Darlington County as a 3rd grade teacher, but I am estatic to now be teaching in my hometown. As a child, I went to Greenwood Elementary School, so it is a humbling and rewarding experience to continue my teaching career at GES. This is my eighth year teaching third grade. Over the past eight years, I have participated in many trainings and professional developments to grow and learn as an educator. I have participated in a mathematics numeracy training and received numeracy leader certification. I am also a certified evaluator and use this skill to evaluate other educators. I have completed my Master's Degree in Administratioin at Arkansas State University. In addition, I have served as Teacher of the Year and awarded the "2018 Outstanding Educator of the Year" from Francis Marion University. Teaching is my passion. I absolutely love coming to work every single day. I have many exciting things planned for us this year and cannot wait to get started creating, constructing, and learning new things with you all!
