Welcome! My name is Amy Lynn Murray and I teach seventh grade Social Studies. This is my fifteenth year of teaching, having graduated in May 2005 from Bowling Green State University (Bowing Green, Ohio) with a Bachelor of Science in Middle Childhood Education (concentrations in English Language Arts and Social Sciences). I also hold a Master's in Educational Technology with a concentration in Emerging Technologies from Lesley University. I am currently enrolled in a doctoral program (Ed.D.) in Educational Technology at Walden University. I am proud to be an Eagle, as this is my eleventh year gladly serving the students and parents at Camden Middle, and my thirteenth year with the Kershaw County School District.
Personally, I am a mom to four beautiful children: a daughter Helen Sue, 23; my son Joseph is 20; my son Gabriel is 18; and my youngest daughter, Arwen, is 13 and in the eighth grade.
I would like to take this opportunity to thank you. Parents, I thank you for partnering with me to make your child's education the best it can be. I thank you for raising your children in a manner that they value their education. But above all else, I thank you for sharing your child's days with me...it is a blessing I do not take lightly. Students, thank you for being here and being positive about your education. I look forward to forming a lifelong partnership with you. Please remember that I will be here for you now and in the future, so I thank you for maintaining an open line of communication with me.
Seventh grade is a transformative year, let's make it the best of our lives!
Be EXCELLENT to each other!
