Meet Mrs. Hemric
Hello! My name is Janice Hemric. I am so thrilled and blessed to be joining the St. Timothy’s family this year. I graduated from UNC Chapel Hill in 1985 and began teaching 5th grade in Greensboro, NC. I retired in 2017 after 32 years of teaching in Guilford and Wake Counties in 3rd, 4th, and 5th grades, and I worked part time last year with 3- and 4-year olds. My favorite part of teaching is seeing a child discover something new and watching their confidence build through their learning. I especially love interacting with students during math and science activities to hear what they already know and to help them extend to new understanding.
Some interesting facts about me:
I married my high school sweetheart, Greg Hemric, 30 years ago. Together, we have three awesome children. Kaitlyn works in supply chain management in Greensboro and is working on her MBA at UNC Chapel Hill. Madison graduated from UNCG and is graduate school there. Harrison is in his second year of college at UNCW. We have one dog, Max and Kaitlyn has two more…so holidays at my house are a zoo! I grew up in Greensboro where I attended the same elementary school where I began teaching. I have lived in Raleigh for 25 years and really love being closer to the beach.
Some of my favorite things are:
• Favorite beverage: Diet Cheerwine
• Favorite sweet treat: Peanut M&M’s and Almond Joy bars
• My Happy Place: Wiggling my toes in the sand at the beach on Oak Island
• Favorite Hobby: Singing (especially praise songs!)
• Favorite Time Filler: Playing Candy Crush on my phone
• Favorite Movie: White Christmas and almost any Disney movie
• Favorite Author: Susan Wiggs
• Favorite Color: blue (all shades)
• Favorite Character: Snoopy and the Peanuts gang
• Favorite Sport: baseball
• Favorite Holiday: Christmas (I am hooked on Hallmark Christmas movies!)
