Penny Jordan-Gresham

Intern

Hi, I'm Penny Jordan-Gresham. I am a mother of 4 beautiful children and 2 sweet grandchildren. I worked for Aiken County School System for 2 years as a substitute teacher and 6 years as a paraprofessional in the classroom for children with special needs. I changed careers due to becoming a single parent. Now that my children are grown, I am pursuing my dream of becoming a teacher. I am now a college student at PTC and majoring in Early Childhood Development and Education. I am currently in my third semester of my education. My goal is to continue my education at Lander University and major in Special Needs Education. I am looking forward to getting to know everyone at Little Folks Daycare. I also want to thank the staff and the parents for being such a crucial part of my education and for allowing me to work with these precious children.
