 Hello Matt Mariners! My name is Rachel Rickett, and I’m so excited to be on the second grade team this year! I am no stranger to Matt Elementary and have worked in the after school program here since I was a senior in high school. I quickly fell in love with the school and knew this was where I wanted to begin my teaching career. I attained my Associates Degree from the University of North Georgia and my Bachelor’s Degree from Western Governor’s University.  I majored in Early Childhood Education and have an endorsement in general special education. I can’t wait to meet my students and kick off this year! It’s going to be fabulous!

Hi! This marks my 11th year teaching at Matt Elementary. I've taught kindergarten and 2nd grade. I graduated from Georgia Southern University with a degree in Early Childhood Education with a gifted endorsement. I enjoy crafting, reading, and spending time with my family. It's going to be a great year!

Building a classroom community by getting to know my student’s and their families, and inspiring students to love learning, are some of the most important things to me as a teacher. This will be my first year teaching second grade and I can’t wait connect with my students and their families this year. This will be my 6th year teaching and my ninth year in education. I taught fourth grade for 5 years. Prior to teaching, I served as a kindergarten paraprofessional and as a specials teacher. I have a bachelor's degree in psychology from North Georgia College & State University, and a Master of Arts in Teaching Elementary Education from Liberty University. In my personal time, I enjoy spending time with my family & friends, crafting, listening to audio books, and traveling. I am looking forward to an amazing year ahead!
