I have been working for Honey Grove since 2014. During my time here at Honey Grove, I have worked at Center Grove, Maple Grove, Pleasant Grove, and Sugar Grove. I am making a full circle and am now the Site Supervisor here at Center Grove Elementary School. I am so excited for the upcoming school year. I have had many amazing mentors to prepare and support me in this roll. One of my biggest hobbies is collecting vinyl records. I love digging around antique stores and flea markets looking for a great album. I also am a huge Disney fan! I am very involved with my church, where you can find me can either playing the keyboard, singing or helping out in the preschool classes. I graduated from Whiteland Community High School in 2014. I have many goals for this upcoming school year.
My goal in this position is to create a safe positive environment for our students. I want them to look back on their time at Honey Grove and remember how much fun they had, and memories made. I am so excited to know all of you and your kiddos!

Matt enjoys spending time with friends and family, anything sports-related, going to the gym, eating, and spending time with his wife of 3 years. Matt loves the connections and relationships built during out of school time between staff and students. He believes the flexibility of programming helps set apart out of school time.

Hello! My name is Miss Gretchen and I joined the Honey Grove team in February of 2018. I started my Honey Grove journey at Maple Grove as the Assistant Site Supervisor and then transitioned to North Grove as the Site Supervisor. I have absolutely loved my time here at Honey Grove, and I hope to be here for years to come! Before working at Honey Grove, I’ve been involved with children in camps and other before & after school programs. Being able to work with kids as long as I have has given me many learning opportunities from various childhood development trainings, first aid, CPR, and to be able to attend different conferences around the state and the country. I truly enjoy working and interacting with children, all the while making a difference in their lives. I am originally from the south side of Indianapolis and graduated from Roncalli High School. After graduation, I studied secondary education and mathematics at Saint Mary-of-the-Woods College before moving back to Indianapolis to study elementary education at Ivy Tech. I am a huge Disney enthusiast, an avid reader, extremely organized, crafty, and love to do puzzles whenever I can find free time. I am also a big animal lover as I have two dogs and three cats that I love! My goal for the program at North Grove is for kids to come to an environment where they express their creativity, feel included, and have fun!
