My name is Taryn Klug and this is my first year at McKendree Elementary. I received my Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education from Gainesville State College (now the University of North Georgia) in 2009. I received my Master's degree in Early Childhood Education from Brenau University in 2010. I am certified to teach Pre-K through 5th grades and I have reading and ESOL endorsements. I have been teaching for seven years. I spent four of those years teaching Georgia Pre-K and three teaching 3rd grade. I have a husband named Patrick whom I married in October 2012. I am also a mommy to my son Easton, who was born in February of 2014. We have a 2 dogs named Jasmine and Karras that we love spending time with. In my spare time, I love to read, travel, and spend time with my family. I am so happy to be a part of the McKendree Elementary family and can't wait for a wonderful year with your children!
