My name is Blair Grimes and I am one of the 4K teachers at Aiken Elementary School. This will  be my 14th year teaching. I have taught 5K for five years and this will be my ninth year teaching 4K. 

I received my BA in Early Childhood Education from USC-Aiken and a Masters in Educational Technology also from USC-Aiken. I will be starting my second year at Clemson University working on my Ph.D in Teaching and Learning with a focus on Early Childhood. I  absolutely love teaching young children. It is such a reward to see children grow throughout the year. I strongly welcome parent involvement, so please do not be a stranger. If you need to contact me, please feel free to email me at bgrimes@acpsd.net or you can call the school, (803) 641-2740. My planning period is from 8:30am-9:00am and 12:15-1:30, if you need to schedule a conference. You are also welcome to write to me in your child's agenda, send me a message on classdojo or call the school. Please check our class website every week for updated newsletters and information regarding our class and the school.

I look forward to a wonderful and exciting school year with you and your child!
