Hi, my name is Susan Missy Whiting and I am a 5^th grade teacher at York Road Elementary.  I have been teaching for 33 years and have taught Special Education, second, third, fourth and fifth grade.  I can truly say that fifth is my favorite!  I have currently been at York Road since 2008 and work with safety patrol members and the recycling club. I was also selected as the York Road Teacher of the Year for the 2017-2018 school year.

I graduated from Winthrop University and received my undergraduate and Master’s Degree.  When I graduated, I taught a self-contained class at Edgewood Center and stayed there for three years.  The center was closed and I was moved to Sunset Park Elementary, where I still taught a special education class.  After that, I taught for ten years at Belleview Elementary and eventually moved to third grade.  While I was teaching, I was also coaching girls’ basketball at Rock Hill High School.  I coached JV and was the Varsity Assistant for eleven years.
