Mrs. Garrabrant
Hello everyone, my name is Mrs. Brittany Garrabrant and I am excited for another great school year! I am looking forward to getting to know you, your children, and your families throughout the school year. I hope to make your child's learning experience a fun and exciting one, and instill a love of learning that will last throughout your child's educational career. I really enjoy teaching here at Walter Shade Early Childhood Center and I know your children will love it just as much as I do. This will be my eighth year with my own classroom but ninth year at the ECC as I was an assistant the year before.
I graduated from Bowling Green State University in 2011 with my Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education. I also received my Master's Degree in Literacy from the University of Dayton in 2015. I grew up in Kettering where I was a cheerleader for most of my life. Now I currently live in Miamisburg with my husband, Micah. We have been married for 9 years and have a 2 year old son named Owen. He was born 5 weeks premature at 4lbs 7 oz and had to spend 2 weeks in the NICU but he is our little miracle. We also have two black lab dogs, Malli and Natty, who are 9 years old. They are great dogs and good big sisters to Owen!
Malli has the pink collar. When we first got them Natty had a green collar but was often mistaken for a boy so we switched it to red.
Family is very important to me and I talk about them to my students a lot! You will definitely be hearing a lot about my mom (Ms.. Solich) throughout the school year as she volunteers in my classroom often.

Micah and I love traveling and along with many states here in the U.S., we have also been to Hong Kong and St. Lucia. We are looking forward to traveling and continue seeing the world in the future.

I am a huge football fan and even though I root for the Bengals, I was so excited to be able to visit the Cowboys stadium in Texas!
