Mrs. Carolyn Davis

I am thrilled to begin my third year teaching library at Whiltesville Elementary!  I love this community, and I am so grateful to have the opportunity to work with each of your children.

Although my husband was raised in this area, I am originally from Texas.  While living there I earned my Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education from Texas A&M Commerce and taught 4th and 5th grades.  I relocated to South Carolina 24 years ago, and I have taught in Berkeley County since then.  I earned my Masters of Information & Library Science from the University of South Carolina 15 years ago, and I switched from the regular classroom to the library media center at that time.  

In my opinion, reading is the most important skill that we teach children in school, and I consider myself lucky to be able to spread the love of reading with students on a daily basis.
