Congratulations to 2024 Retiree Mrs. Paulette Haynie! 🥳🎉
Mrs. Haynie has retired after 23 years of service to Anderson 3. Paulette is originally from Abbeville and is a graduate of Abbeville High School. She attended Tennessee Temple University and Piedmont Technical College. Paulette has worked in her current role as a kindergarten paraprofessional at Flat Rock Elementary for 11 years. Before that, she served at the district office and as a Special Education Paraprofessional.
She and her late husband, David, have one daughter, Katelyn (Robert), who has blessed Paulette with a granddaughter, Daveigh. Paulette is excited to spend more time with her family and serve at church.
"My favorite memory has to be seeing students light up when they can read or understand a math problem. Seeing students grow in their learning has been rewarding. Also, when former students wrote me a letter thanking me for encouraging them to be all they can be. My motto has been "I can and I will" with students "who feel defeated" in their learning. Sharing this with some of the students gave them encouragement to try a math problem or sounding out a word while reading a book. When that student attempted and succeeded, a smile came to their face. That has always been the most rewarding time as a paraprofessional, knowing I made a difference in a child's life." 💡💕
Thank you for being so dedicated to #A3Students, Mrs. Haynie. We will miss you! 💛
