Crystal Klein- Kindergarten
My name is Crystal Klein, I live in Johnston County, but I have worked at MES for 23 years! I love this school and community and I look forward to teaching the Kindergarten this year.
Savannah Neal- 1st grade
This is my fourth year teaching at MES. As an educator, I believe that we are given a difficult job and everyday that job seems to become a little harder or challenging. I believe that it is a part of my responsibility as an educator to provide a capable student, both academically and socially, despite the difficult situations that many students seem to face. I effectively teach my students by offering a flexible classroom and exhibit student centered teaching throughout the day. Student-Centered teaching will encourage the students to construct their own learning and become more engaged and on task throughout the day.
Ryan Adams- 1st Grade
I am excited to be in my second year teaching first grade at MES! Before becoming an elementary teacher, I spent more than 10 years in higher education, teaching college courses and leading extension and outreach programs at NC State and Iowa State University. After a rewarding career in academia, I decided to make a big change and focus on inspiring young learners. My goal is to create a classroom where learning is engaging, hands-on, and most importantly, fun! I hope to share my enthusiasm for learning and help every child develop curiosity, confidence, and a lifelong love of discovering new things.I earned both my bachelor's and Master of Science degrees in Horticulture. I enjoy sharing that passion with my students by bringing nature and hands-on exploration into the classroom whenever I can.
