My name is Kristin Countryman and I am so excited to teach kindergarten at OES this year! I love kindergarten and can’t wait to love on those babies! I have been a teacher for 15 years and have taught 3rd grade, 2nd grade, and kindergarten. I am a graduate of Athens State University where I received my degree in Elementary Education in 2006. I am also CPR/First Aid certified. I am happily married to Scott Countryman and we live on a farm in Steele. We have 4 children: Brayden works at UAB and is about to get married, Gracie is a student at JSU, Faith is a senior in high school, and Eliana is our little caboose in 1st grade at OES. Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family every moment I can. We love outside adventures! I am a big animal lover, and love caring for my pets. We are members at Meadowbrook Baptist in Gadsden, and live our lives to serve God. I am excited about being an OES Saint!
