Bio

My name is Kim Francis and I am in my 17th  year of teaching and my 7th year at GHS. I teach mostly US History and Psychology but I have taught nearly every subject within the Social Studies. I sponsor the Scholar's Bowl and Round Robin teams at GHS. I grew up in middle TN but fell in love with Northeast TN during a summer in high school spent at the Governor's School for TN Heritage. I attended Tusculum College where I met my husband Kenneth. We live here in Greene County with our son Keegan and our dog Kasey. I enjoy reading, movies, cooking, travel and the outdoors. 

 

Earl

Earl the Eagle is our class mascot. He is a stars and stripes patterned eagle who enjoys travel and hanging out in my classroom. He can often be found admiring student work or encouraging students in various classroom activities. You can keep up with Earl through the hashtag #MuricaEarl or by following me on Twitter @kbrattenfrancis.
