My name is Lloyd Childs, and I am delighted your child is in my fourth grade class this year! I’d like to begin by introducing myself. Originally from Kentucky, my family moved to Savannah, GA when I was 7 years old. I have two brothers who serve as bookends to me. My older brother lives in Brooklyn, New York, and my younger brother lives just a few minutes away here in Atlanta. I have two adoring parents in Savannah who come to visit any chance they get. I have been married to my husband, Stuart for three years. We have a Golden Retriever named Rennie and a baby on the way!
My teaching career began when I graduated Magna Cum Laude from the University of Georgia with a Bachelor of Science in Education in 2012- needless to say I am an avid Bulldawg fan! And yes, Rennie is named after Rennie Curran, who was a linebacker for Georgia . When I graduated, I wasn’t quite ready to leave Athens, so I stayed and taught at a Title 1 school for two years. It was then that I obtained a Gifted and Talented In Field Endorsement and I am excited to use it within the classroom. After that, I followed my husband to Atlanta where I taught third grade at Ocee Elementary in Johns Creek. Over the last 6 years I have taught 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade, and am so ready to embark on my eighth year of teaching!

I have wanted to be a teacher for as long as I can remember. One of my elementary school teachers was my inspiration and one of the biggest reasons I am here today. Thus, I am so excited to share in this stage of your child’s education. My commitment to Heards Ferry Elementary and the success of the students is unwavering. Through my teaching, I have learned first-hand all students can thrive if they are provided a positive educational environment.
Heards Ferry Elementary is an outstanding school, and I feel very fortunate to be working with such a gifted and talented staff. Working together, we can provide a rewarding and memorable experience for your child. You know your child best, so please let me know if there is anything that I can do to make this school year a positive educational experience.
