I am absolutely thrilled for another year of teaching at Settles Bridge. I graduated from the University of North Georgia with a bachelors in Early Childhood and Special Education. I love watching students grow and progress. I have coached swim at LifeTime Fitness for 4 years and my favorite part was the relationship with the kids. I enjoy staying active by working out, weightlifting, and playing basketball. I'm so excited for another terrific year!

I love being a teacher at SBE! I hold a degree in Elementary Education from Auburn University in Montgomery, Alabama. I taught kindergarten for three years and preschool for five years. I have been married to my husband, Eric for 26 years and we have three children that have all attended Settles Bridge Elementary since we relocated here in 2011. We now have two at Lambert and one at University of North Georgia. This is my fifth year in third grade, and I absolutely love it! I am looking forward to all the learning, fun and great memories that are made in 3rd grade.

Hello and welcome to 3rd grade! My name is Jennifer Hoxie and I am so excited about this year! I have been teaching for 26 years and most of it has been here at Settles Bridge, as I opened this school back in 1999. I have taught kindergarten for 11 years, 1st grade for 2 years, 2nd grade for 11 years, and third grade for 2 years throughout my career. This year will be my 3rd year as a 3rd grade teacher and I'm looking forward to another great adventure! I graduated from the University of Georgia and also earned a Masters degree from UGA! GOOOOOO DAWGS!! I love spending time with my family when I'm not at work. I have 2 daughters. My oldest daughter will be a senior at UGA! My youngest daughter will be a freshman at Georgia College. I also enjoy playing tennis, working out, and trying new places to eat! I will be an empty nester this year so can't wait to love on some 3rd graders! Let's have the best year ever! It's going to be fantastic, and I'm so glad each of your children are in my class! :-) I look forward to building new relationships and getting to know each and every child as an individual! It's going to be an amazing year in 3rd grade!

Welcome to third grade! My name is Kristine Loughman. I graduated from the University of Georgia (Go Dawgs!) with a Bachelor's Degree in Journalism and a Master's Degree in Education. When I’m not teaching, you can find me reading, going for a run (I ran my first half marathon in 2017 and haven’t stopped since), keeping the chipmunks out of my vegetable garden, and hanging out with my husband, two daughters, and our dog Eddie. I love teaching at Settles Bridge and I can’t wait to build a classroom community where we can all learn from each other!
