I am Kriston Peterson and this is my seventh year as this media specialist at Brighten Academy. I have a Bachelors degree in Early Childhood Education and a Masters degree in Schoo Library Media from the University of West Georgia. My husband and I have dog, she is a 16 year old Jack Russell Terrier named Yoohoo. When I am not reading books, I love scuba diving, CrossFit, yoga, scrapbooking, and beekeeping!

I am Kim Richison, and I have been at Brighten Academy for 14 years. I am the media clerk, and have been for the past several years.
I have been married for almost 35 years! I have one daughter, an energetic grandson who will be 4 in October, and 3 dogs. There’s never a dull moment between work and home, but when given the opportunity, I love to read. |
