Welcome!   

My name is Brandi Arton and I am a 3rd grade teacher at Hernando Hills Elementary School.   I am originally from Chalmette, Louisiana, which is right outside of New Orleans. I graduated in 1994 with a BA in Elementary Education from Southeastern Louisiana University. I graduated from Mississippi College in May 2020 with a Master of Education in Curriculum and Instruction.

This is year 23 of teaching for me, 15 of which have been at Hernando Hills.  I have taught in Louisiana, Arizona, North Carolina, and am so glad to be in Mississippi.  I have experience in Kindergarten through 8th grade, but always knew 3rd grade had a special place in my heart.  This is my tenth year in 3rd grade.

My husband, Ryan, and I moved to Hernando in 2005.  We have 5 wonderful children. Malorie is 23 and a graduate of the University of Memphis. She is a NICU Nurse at Baptist Women's Hospital. Bret is 21 and a Senior at Ole Miss. Sam is 17 and in the 11th grade, and we have 9 year old twin girls, Whitney and Charlotte "Charlie", who are in 3rd grade at Hernando Hills Elementary.

Teaching in the community in which I live is very rewarding! I love Hernando Hills. The staff is wonderful, and we have great students.  I believe in the mission of Hernando Hills: "NO EXCUSES,  JUST EXCELLENCE".  I look forward to working with you to help your child achieve this goal. 

Please do not ever hesitate to call or email me for any reason. I hope to work closely with you this year to make this a fun learning experience for your child.
