    Hi there! My name is Jessica Giraldo and I am so excited to be joining the Brandywine Family! This will be my second year teaching, as I previously taught First Grade at Chestatee Elementary. I grew up in Cumming and attended school in Forsyth County all throughout my early, middle, and high school years. I graduated from the University of North Georgia with a Bachelor’s in Early Childhood Education and Special Education. My absolute favorite thing about teaching is getting to build close relationships with each of my students and providing them with love and support to ensure that they are successful in their learning journey. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling and spending time with my friends and family. I look forward to being a part of the fourth grade team this year!
