I am super excited for this new school year at HCJ as a 4th grade classroom teacher.  I have been a teacher for more than 10 years now and I have taught ESOL, Spanish, Fourth and Fifth grade in Florida and even subbed in California.

My husband Andrew and I have two wonderful sons, Anthony and Jacob.  Along with being an educator and a mom, I enjoy spending time with family & friends, hiking, cooking and swimming.

I can't wait to embark on new adventures with my students this year at HCJ!

In 2006, I began my teaching career in Gaston County, NC where I taught for 11 years. In 2017, I moved and began teaching 4th grade here at Harold C. Johnson Elementary!

I currently live in Clover, SC. My passion is teaching, being in the classroom, and continuing to grow as an educator to inspire and motivate my students! I also enjoy spending time with family and friends, watching football, traveling (especially to the mountains or the beach!), music, crafting, hiking, and trying new things!

My name is Hayley Dover and I was born and raised here in York, South Carolina.  I am a proud graduate of York Comprehensive High School.

I am currently enrolled at Winthrop University and will graduate in May of 2023 with another Master's Degree but this time in Education Leadership. I also coach junior varsity softball at the high school and those girls sure do keep me on my toes!

I live in York with my husband Wes, and our 3 children, Anna Kate, Maddox, and Miller.  We spend a lot of our free time at the ballfield watching our daughter play softball.  Our boys are active in all sorts of activities, from plays, Taekwondo, piano, you name it. All of my family lives close and we all enjoy spending time together on the weekends and going on vacations with each other.
