My name is Kayla Moody and this is my 2nd year at BRMS. I previously taught in South Georgia for 4 years all in 8th grade. I graduated from Pierce County High School. (Go Bears!) I have a Bachelor’s Degree from Valdosta State, Master’s Degree from Savannah State and I am currently in School at Georgia Southern.

I was born and raised in Blackshear, GA. I love to travel and explore new places whenever I can with family and friends. I am blessed to have the best family and friends anyone could ask for! I love teaching Math and helping students enjoy it as well.
Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my Husband, Andrew and watching and attending as many sporting events as possible.
