All about Mrs. Bossman
My family and I recently moved to Holly Springs from Florida. I am so excited to begin my 17th year of teaching at Olive Chapel! I'm glad to be teaching first grade again! I love teaching and enjoying creating fun and enjoyable activities for students. I graduated from the University of Florida and I am a huge Gator fan! I enjoy watching football and spending time with my boys when I am not teaching. I have been married to my hubby Phil for 15 years and we have 2 sons, Tyler and Logan. I love being a Mommy and love to spend time outdoors with my kids. In my spare time I love to read and create Pinterest projects.
My name is Elaine Austin. I grew up in Cary and attended Wake county schools myself. After graduating from Apex High school, I set off to college at UNCW in Wilmington. It was there that I met my husband Lyman. We have been married for 33 years and have two amazing sons. Our oldest son, Trent lives in Charleston S.C. with his wife Katie. Ben, the youngest, also lives in Charleston, S.C. They are both wildlife biologists for the state of South Carolina.
I have been a Teacher Assistant in Wake County for over 20 years. Dillard Drive Elementary was the first school I worked at. While at Dillard, I worked with all grade levels, two years as the library assistant, helped with creating displays/props for school productions and was Teacher Assistant of the year. Then I took a job at Olive Chapel to be on a year-round schedule. This is my third year at Olive Chapel in first grade, which is my favorite. The teachers I work with are amazing! I love helping children to achieve their best, share experiences with them, and inspire them not only academically but personally!
Personally, I enjoy art, cooking, dancing, the outdoors, and spending time with my family and friends!
