Please help us welcome our new art teacher! 🎨
Hi, I'm Thayer Berry! I am a lifelong Greenville resident and have spent more than 25 years sharing my love of art with children. I earned a B.A. in Art History from the College of Charleston and later pursued graduate studies in Art Education at Converse College. After teaching at Grove Elementary and First Presbyterian Kindergarten, I found my home at Augusta Circle Elementary, where I have taught for the past 20 years. Helping children discover their creativity and confidence through art has been one of the greatest joys of my life.
As I begin this new chapter, I am excited to continue teaching part-time at King’s Classical School while also offering private art classes and workshops. I look forward to sharing the joy of creating with students in new ways.
My husband, Byron, and I have five wonderful children: Christopher, Caroline, Griffin, Lila, and Spencer. Our family is growing with the addition of our daughter-in-law, Mollie, son-in-law, Adam, and our first grandchild!
When I'm not teaching or creating art, I enjoy spending time with my family, cheering on Clemson football, and traveling.
