Ashley Brady - 4th Grade Teacher
Welcome to fourth grade at ABS! Your students are now the biggest kids in the building and I can't wait to spend the year with them learning and leading.
I'm entering my 6th year teaching at ABS, this being my second year in 4th grade. I previously taught 3rd grade here and worked as a kinder TA for a year before that. I live here in Winston Salem with my husband, Ryan, three of our four kids; Harli (7th grade at ABS), Taryn (9th grade homeschooler), and Rohen (11th grade at Atkins). My oldest child, Cade, is entering their senior year at NC State University, majoring in Chemistry, and recently got married to their partner, Grayson! In my life prior to teaching, I was a hair dresser turned stay at home mom. I went back to school to earn my BA in Teaching Schools and Societies with an Advocacy Concentration from Salem College, graduating Summa Cum Laude in 2020. I am currently working towards a Masters of Special Education for Gifted, Creative, and Innovative education at Western Carolina University and am set to graduate in May 2026!
In my time away from school, I love all things beachy, visiting the mountains, and traveling with my friends and family. I love to sing, craft, and create! I'm always up for something fun, creative, and musical and I love to try new things. I'm looking forward to great adventures with you all this year!
