Mrs. Mikki Asberry

Great day to you Trip Family! I am Mikki Asberry and appreciate the continued love and professional support of our great leaders, educational colleagues, and fantastic students in Rams Country! Favorite Quote: “Education is the most powerful weapon which you can use to change the world.”-Nelson Mandela

When I am not teaching, I find myself anchored and encouraged by my husband's and my two college-age sons' consistent love and support. I enjoy giving and receiving constant support from my tribe of family and lifelong friends, anything that's purple, cheering Atlanta Falcons football, journal blogging, listening to good music, and reading actual hard/paperback books.

This year is going to be GREAT! Teaching and learning are my favorite activities and I consider myself a lifelong student. I cannot wait to journey with you and your student for all the learning adventures we will take together this year.

Ms. Lashawna Bryant

Greetings RAMily! 

I am Lashawna Bryant and I am so thrilled to start my journey at Trip Elementary. I am so passionate about what I do as a teacher, and the many shining stars I come across.

I have a Bachelor’s Degree from Clark Atlanta University in Mass Media Arts with a concentration in Public Relations. I also hold a Master’s in Elementary education. 

I am coming over from Cobb county, where I taught 4th grade, 5th grade and computer. I have always known teaching was my path, since the tender age of 10. . After helping launch the counties flagship mentorship program at 18, that just sealed the deal for me. 
In my past time I enjoy spending time with my husband and two children SJ and Saylor Breeze. I also enjoy hiking, watching football, volunteering, eating and watching a good tv show. 

I have a feeling that this year is going to be a great one, because what a time to be a RAM! 

Looking forward!
