MISS DRUMMOND
I received my Undergraduate Degree in Integrated Education from Mars Hill University in 2018. I also received my Master's Degree in Elementary Education from Mars Hill University in 2021. This will be my fourth year teaching and my third year in third grade. I have been working in North Carolina for the past five years but I am so excited to get back home to Greenville County and work at Grove! In my free time, I love teaching dance, watching baseball, and spending time with my dog. A fun fact about me is that in college I got to travel overseas and dance in International Folk Festivals!
