My name is Tripp Smyth.  Currently, I am in my twelfth year of teaching and this is my eleventh year teaching second grade.  I am a graduate of Francis Marion University, where I graduated Cum Laude with a BS in Early Education.  I am excited about getting this new and much different year started.  A year in which I look forward to making my students as comfortable and successful as possible with all of the changes that have taken place.
