My name is Christie Drake Adams and I am very excited and honored to be your 6th grade ELA/SS teacher this year at Beech Springs Intermediate! This will be my 18th year of teaching. Teaching and learning are my passions as you will easily be able to tell once you step into our classroom. I believe that learning should be exciting and fun; enthusiasm is key for a successful year.
I graduated from the University of South Carolina with a BA Degree in Education, and Columbia College with a Masters of Education. In addition, I am currently pursuing a Doctor of Education Degree from Northcentral University. I have experience teaching 1st through 8th grades. Also, I served as an Instructional Coach for two years in Arlington, Virginia. I am Gifted and Talented certified. I am a 'Seesaw Ambassador'; this prestigious honor gives me the opportunity to train other educators around the world in the Seesaw Digital Learning Portfolio Program.
In 2017 I received the 'District Five's Finest' award. I serve as a mentor to new teachers in our district. This school year, I will be a 'Model Classrooms' teacher for our school district.
I enjoy reading, history, traveling, GAMECOCK football, anything on the lake or our Harley Davidson, and spending time with my family. I'm energetic and bubbly and love to surround myself around POSITIVE people!
I am married to Scott Adams, and we live in the metropolis of Inman ;) I have one son, Blane. He is a fifth grader this year at Inman Intermediate School. He is growing into a fine young man! I have an amazing, wonderful life... :) I wouldn't change a thing!
