Welcome!

My name is Caroline Graham and this is my second year teaching 8th grade English Language Arts at McCracken Middle School. I grew up in the Spartanburg area and graduated from District 3 in 2015. I graduated with my Bachelor's degree in Secondary Education from USC Upstate Spring 2019. I'm so thrilled to be working in the community where I grew up! Teaching ELA is my passion and I love pairing classic texts with more engaging media forms and pop culture to teach students important skills that they will need in college and in the workforce. Skills like critical thinking, analysis, communicating, and creating will benefit my students in any life path they choose to take.
