Hello! My name is Ashley Brenton and I am so excited to be St. Simon's Kindergarten Teacher! To get to know me better, last year, I served as the instructional aide for the 2nd and 3rd-grade classes. Before St. Simon, I taught 2nd grade in a St. Louis public school for 1 year, and have experience teaching preschool-aged kiddos as well. I graduated from Missouri State University with my BS in Elementary Education with an emphasis in special education. When I am not teaching, I am usually spending time with my family and friends, or taking my puppies on walks. I have two puppies, named Freyja and Floki, that love to play. I come from a big family of eight kids, making me the baby, but I wouldn't have it any other way. My second favorite job is being an aunt to all 14 of my nieces and nephews! I was born and raised in south county St. Louis, so automatically my favorite sports teams are the St. Louis Blues and Cardinals.
I feel so blessed and excited to be teaching Kindergarten this year and I cannot wait to continue building this amazing community. I know this year is going to be amazing!!!
