Hi! This is both my first year at Hammond Hill Elementary and my first year as a teacher! I am so excited to be here! I moved to the area from Las Cruces, New Mexico, where I graduated from New Mexico State University with my Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education. I grew up in Evans, GA and Fort Mill, SC, so I feel right back at home here! 

Outside of teaching, I love hiking, watching movies (particularly Marvel moves!), reading, and hanging out with my adorable twin niece and nephew! I am so thrilled to be a First Grade teacher and I can't wait for all the fun we are going to have this year! 

Please feel free to reach out to me anytime by emailing me at rbaggett@acpsd.net.
