    Hi there! My name is Amanda Clary. I am originally from San Diego, California. I attended the University of Florida where I received both my undergraduate and masters degrees in Elementary Education. Go Gators! This will be my 19th year in education. I have taught fourth grade for the last 12 years and it’s by far my favorite! I have taught in Forsyth, and Fulton county in Georgia and Pasco county in Florida. 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, crocheting, and spending time with my family.
