My name is Bridgette Ripley. I started my teaching career in 2010 teaching Kindergarten at Adams Central and have been here ever since! That makes this my 10th year teaching Kindergarten! I truly love teaching Kindergarten!!
I was born in Lafayette, IN. I lived there most of my life. I am the oldest of 3 girls! After graduating from McCutcheon High School I went to Ball State University for college. I actually started college as an Accounting major and after a year and half I decided my calling was actually to be a teacher! So I majored in Elementary Education with a concentration in Primary/Kindergarten. While I was at Ball State I met my now husband, Elliott (we actually met in New York, but that’s a long story!) I graduated from Ball State in May, 2010 and the very next weekend we got married! That summer I was hired at AC to teach Kindergarten and I am now starting my 10th year doing what I love… teaching little ones!! |
I have been married to Elliott since May of 2010. Elliott is a Youth Pastor at Pleasant Dale Church of the Brethren! (Elliott loves woodworking/building things, it's great to have a handy hubby to build things for my classroom!)
