April Balenger

A lifelong student of the past, April Balenger always knew she wanted to do something that combined her love of history and teaching. Many years later, here she is, living her dream teaching 8th grade Georgia Studies.

Mrs. Balenger received her Undergraduate, Masters, and Specialist degree in education from Brenau University. Currently, she is piloting the civics program sponsored by the Georgia Center for Civic Engagement.

While at school, she continues to serve the students through sponsoring the Jr. Beta club, mock trial team, and serving as the competitive cheer coach.

In her free time she enjoys roaming through Georgia’s historical treasure troves, reading, crafting, and spending time with her husband, children, and grandchildren.
