Hello there!
My name is Chyna Bratcher, and I’m a kindergarten teacher in a rural public school in North Carolina. I began my educator journey teaching 5th grade, but soon made the incredible leap to teach kindergarteners. I wasn’t sure what to expect, but I walked into the greatest blessing — planting seeds and watching them grow in the beautiful garden of kindergarten.
I’m excited to share my journey — through the ups, downs, and in-betweens of life as an educator. My hope is to inspire both new and seasoned teachers to keep showing up, keep pouring in, and keep shaping the future.
You can follow along with my class this year below and on my Instagram.
