Mrs. Chisolm

My name is Tiana Chisolm. I am from Rock Hill, SC. This is my 5th year at Jefferson Elementary where I've been a Kindergarten assistant, 2nd grade teacher and now I'm in 5K! I graduated from the Illustrious South Carolina State University and received my masters in Elementary Education from University of Phoenix. I have a 5 year old son who keeps me on my toes daily. 
 
When I'm not at school I enjoy exercising, crafting, doing jigsaw puzzles, and reading. You can also find me on the court, playing, coaching, or training basketball or having brunch because I love FOOD! I love everything Disney, UNC Tarheels, science, and of course TARGET!!!

Mrs. Hutchison

Hello, 

My name is Moriah Hutchison. A lot of my former students still know me by and call me "Mrs. Ginn". Marriage changes things, in the best way. 

I am originally a Georgia peach, but I have lived in South Carolina most of my life. I have always known that I would work with children in some capacity, and I feel that teaching is my calling. I received my BS in Early Childhood Education from Winthrop University. I have taught 1st Grade, 4K, and Kindergarten. When I'm not at school, I enjoy reading, spending time with my family, and trying new things!​ I love all things Disney and Marvel. I relate to the students because I feel like I'm still a kid at heart. I am so thrilled to be at Jefferson with some incredible staff and students!

I’m so happy to be joining Ms. Chisolm at Jefferson.  It’s going to be an exciting year.  I was born and raised in York, South Carolina.  I have taught 4K for 6 years.  It makes my heart happy to see their smiling faces.  When not at school, I spend my time with my family.  I have two boys—Mitchell and Carson.  We spend most weekends attending all the sports the boys are in.

Hey everyone! My name is Mikayla Barnhart and I am so excited to join the Kindergarten team this year at JES. I graduated from Winthrop University in 2021 and began that year teaching 2nd grade. After taking time off to have my first child, I found my way back to teaching here at Jefferson in 4th grade. I currently live in Chester with my wonderful husband, our baby boy, Gatlin, and our three pups. In my spare time I love to read, shop, and spend time with my family. I look forward to a great year!
