About Me
My name is Whitney Gremillion, and this is my sixth year to teach at High Point Elementary. I graduated from Texas A&M University in College Station, Texas, and I love anything Aggies! I have taught children in Texas for sixteen years, and teaching is definitely my calling. In my free time, I enjoy reading, playing games and sports with my children and husband, watching Aggie football, and working on my farm (chickens, turkeys, ducks, and guineas are my favorite). I also enjoy learning about other cultures. I speak Spanish and am teaching myself Mandarin. I love to eat, and you will usually find coffee near me, especially if it's in the morning. I love music and thoroughly enjoy singing (poorly) and dancing to it.
I absolutely love to read; my favorite types of books are classic literature and historical fiction. Some of my favorite authors are Charlotte Bronte, Jane Austen, Christopher Paul Curtis, and Richard Peck. I like to watch movies, but I do not like movies that are based on books at all!
I have been married for fifteen years to a wonderful man. We have five children...a twenty-two year old son, two eighth graders, one in fifth grade, and a six-year-old in first grade (the youngest two are here are High Point...my eighth graders are at NJH). All children are a blessing, and ours have certainly blessed my life.
We share our home with several dogs and cats, as well as rats, fish, goats, lizards, ferrets, and a ball python, as well as my flock of chickens, guineas, turkeys, geese, and ducks. We even have a forty-year-old tortoise named Vondi! I love anything that walks, crawls, waddles, or slithers!
