Hello, my name is Asia McClain and I am the Pre-Kindergarten teacher at Grannemann Elementary. Before teaching Pre-K I taught Kindergarten two years and 1st Grade for half a year at Grannemann. I have also worked as a teacher's assistant at Central Early Childhood for the district.

I earned a Bachelors of Science Degree in  Elementary Education with certifications in Early Childhood, Elementary Education,  Special Reading K-12,and Middle School Math from Jackson State University. I earned a Masters of Arts in Educational Technology from Lindenwood University.

My educational Philosophy is based on reaching younger students to create a love of learning that will continue throughout the matriculation of their school career. Once the students have confidence and enjoyment with learning at a younger age, it will show in their school work and aid in their success in academics. I love the creativity of working with children and that learning is a two-way street. We learn from each other and build meaningful relationships!
