My name is Kristen Kennerly Augustine, and I am so thrilled to be a third grade science and math teacher at Kelly Edwards Elementary School.  Third grade can be tough, but so much fun.
        I grew up in Springfield, SC and graduated from Hunter-Kinard-Tyler High School. Currently, I am in my ninth year of teaching.  I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in education from the University of South Carolina in Aiken, in Aiken, SC,  with a concentration in elementary education.  I am currently certified to teach elementary school.  I have also earned a Master's degree from the University of West Alabama in Library Media.
        I am happily married to David Augustine, a high school assistant principal.  We have a son, Kip and a daughter, Hallie. They arey truly both gifts from God, and we cherish every moment we have with them.   We have one dog, whose name is Chance. I enjoy spending time with my family, going out to eat, and going to the beach.
