Meet the Teacher
Ms. Chesnutt

Hello!
My name is Brooke Chesnutt and this is my 7th year in education and my third year at Benhaven Elementary School. I have lived in North Carolina since 2018 with my 2 kids. My 14 year old son is in a freshman at the Harnett County Early College and my 11 year old daughter is in 6th grade. When I am not teaching I am usually at the baseball field, my son plays travel baseball.
I am originally from Texas (Go Cowboys) but spent most of my childhood in Albuquerque, NM where I graduated High School and attended the University of New Mexico. I love to travel, especially to visit family all over the country. A lot of my family is in St. Louis, MO (Go Cardinals) and I love going visit my aunts, uncles, and cousins. (I come from a very big family)
I graduated with my Bachelor's degree in Communication, however, I was a stay at home mom when my kids were younger before they started school. When I went back to work, I started as a long term sub and fell in love with being in the classroom. I decided to go back to school and get my Masters in Elementary Education and I don't regret it for a minute.
I am excited to be your child's teacher and look forward to seeing the growth in every student this school year. If you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to reach out to me and I will do my best to assist you in any way I can.
