    O'Keefe   Amy O'Keefe

    My name is Amy O’Keefe, and I am excited to be teaching third grade at Brandywine this year! I have taught in both public and private schools all over the country from Monroe, GA to Gainesville, FL to Malibu, CA to New Haven, CT over the past twenty-four years. I have also taught in Forsyth and Fulton Counties over that time period as well and am looking forward to returning to Forsyth County as a teacher.

    I received my Early Childhood degree from the University of Georgia and my Masters degree in Early Childhood from Georgia State University. Years later, I got my Specialists degree from Piedmont College in Teaching and Learning. I have taught first, third, fourth, and fifth grades.

    I have been married to my husband, Brian, for eighteen years. We have a fourteen year old son who will be a freshman at Roswell High School this year. I enjoy spending time with my family, cooking, traveling, and playing tennis.
