Hello! I am Mark Garland and I am a gifted teacher at HSES. This is my third year at High Shoals. I received a Bachelor of Arts in Human Geography from the University of Georgia and a Master’s degree in Early Childhood Education from Piedmont College. I am entering my tenth year of teaching. Before coming to High Shoals, I taught fourth grade at Bramlett Elementary in Auburn, Georgia for seven years. I am married to an incredibly talented woman, Sarah Eubanks Garland, and we currently live in Athens with our dog, Gilly.
