Mrs. Elizabeth Brush

Welcome to First Grade! I am so excited to have you in our class! I have been in the education field for 22 years, teaching kindergarten and first grade. First grade is my favorite grade because there is so much growth in all subjects!

I have always lived in North Carolina. I went to East Carolina University. GO PIRATES! I graduated May 2020 with my Master's in Reading Education.

I will treat each student as my own child and will have high expectations of them. I will love them unconditionally and can't wait to see the progress they make this year.

Thank you for your support this year. Together we will watch your child SOAR with success!
