My name is Molly Hayne, and I am very excited to be teaching your first grader this year at Columbia! I have grown up in Madison City and attended Madison City Schools from Kindergarten through high school, so I may be a little biased when I say it truly is the best school system in Alabama. I graduated from Bob Jones High School in 2010 and earned a Bachelor of Science in Education degree from Athens State University in 2016. I have been teaching First Grade at Columbia Elementary since Fall 2016. 

I am married to my wonderful husband, Nik; we were married in October 2017. Together we have a dog, Doobie. He keeps us moving constantly. In my free time, I enjoy shopping, reading, spending time with my family and friends, and watching football (Roll Tide!!)
