Megan Bagley Hi! I'm Megan Bagley and I love being a wife, mother, and a teacher! I have lived in Forsyth County almost all my life and enjoy volunteering at my church and spending time with my family. I hold a Master's Degree in Early Childhood Education from Columbus State University. For my undergrad, I attended North Georgia University, earning a dual degree in Early Childhood and Special Education, and I have reading, science, and STEM/STEAM endorsements! I love being a teacher and consider every student who walks through my classroom door a member of the Bagley Bunch! 390435 mbagley@forsyth.k12.ga.us Jennifer Henry My name is Jennifer Henry. I graduated from Georgia State University with a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education. I have also earned my Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education and my Educational Specialist degree from Mercer University, along with an ESOL endorsement. This will be my 12th year teaching! I started my career in 2011 at Cotton Indian Elementary School in Henry County. I decided it was time for a big move and came to Forsyth County where I taught at Sharon Elementary for five years and this now this will be my second year at Poole's Mill Elementary. 390442 jhenry16@forsyth.k12.ga.us Jennifer Hodge Ahoy Pirates! I have been teaching in Forsyth County since 2002 with experience in both second and third grades. I graduated from The State University of West Georgia with a bachelor’s degree in early childhood education. I have also earned both my Science and Gifted Endorsements. When I am not teaching, I enjoy spending time with my husband Michael and our dog Sadie. We love the outdoors and spend our time hiking, biking, gardening, or attending Atlanta Braves baseball games. I am so excited for this upcoming school year and cannot wait to meet our new crew! 390437 jhodge@forsyth.k12.ga.us Savannah Magruder I am over the moon to begin my teaching career at Poole's Mill Elementary! I'm a Forsyth County native and was actually raised just down the road from this beautiful school. I have a Bachelor's degree in Kinesiology from Georgia Southern University as well as a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education from West Florida University. I recently said "I do" to my best friend, Everett, and we have a fur baby mini Goldendoodle named Bentley. I have a bubbly personality, and you'll always find me smiling. A priority of mine is to create a classroom environment where my students are always smiling, too. I can't wait for this school year to begin so that I can meet all of my second grade friends! 390431 smagruder@forsyth.k12.ga.us Dana Martinez I am very excited to be teaching 2nd grade this year! I have taught 1st grade, 5th grade, ESOL, and Pre-K. I am from New Orleans and lived in Miami for a while before moving to Georgia in 2006. I have been married for almost 21 years and we have a beautiful daughter who will be a freshman in high school this year. I love to read, watch movies, and shop. This is going to be a fun year! 390432 DMartinez@forsyth.k12.ga.us Brandi Ray I am so excited to begin another year at Poole’s Mill! I have taught second grade for 5 years at Sawnee Elementary and first grade for 1 year at Poole’s Mill. I have a B.S. and Reading Endorsement in Early Childhood Education, a Masters in Elementary Education, and a Specialist in Elementary Education. Working with children has always been a passion of mine, and I am so fortunate that I was able to turn my passion into a career. When I am not working, I am spending time with my husband and my two children who are ages 15 and 12. I cannot wait for another fun year on the pirate ship!
