Mrs. Tori Ellis

East Carolina University - Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education (minor: Mathematics)

Welcome to 3rd grade friends! I am so excited to join the Swift Creek family this year! This is my third full year teaching, but my first year teaching 3rd grade. I couldn’t be more ready! I have lived in nine different states since I was born, but landed in Raleigh for high school and I have stuck around ever since. In May, my husband and I welcomed our first child, River, into the universe. I may be partial, but he is the cutest! I have two dogs, Minnie and Kuechly, and a cat we call Cat. There is never a dull moment at home, but I wouldn’t have it any other way. In my (limited) free time, I like to shop, complete home projects, go to the beach, and nap.

Ms. Hannah Jones

East Carolina University - Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education (Mathematics concentration)

I am so excited for another school year with the Swift Creek community! I was born in Texas but spent most of my childhood in Cary and am a proud product of WCPSS! I spent four wonderful years teaching in Pitt County before returning home to teach in Wake County.

Although third grade can feel intimidating, I take pride in helping my students gain confidence in their strengths while showing them that mistakes are a valuable part of the learning process!

Outside of school, I enjoy visiting the beach, cheering on my favorite teams (go pirates! go frogs!), and spending time with my miniature dachshund, Minnie. While math is my favorite subject to teach, I also have a deep appreciation for the arts, including music and dance, and I love to curl up with a good book or craft in my free time!

I look forward to working with students and families to make the third grade experience the best one yet!
