This is going to be a very exciting year in 2nd grade. We will spend the year learning and growing virtually.
Welcome to second grade! I am so glad to be a part of Estes
Elementary. I taught at Haw Creek Elementary for 10 years. I am honored
to have served as Buncombe County Schools Ruth Henderson recipient for
the 2013-2014 school year. This award is given to the Teacher of the
Year who exemplifies an altruistic spirit that shines for every student.
I was also Haw Creek's Teacher of the Year for the 2013-2014 school
year. I graduated from the University of Tennessee with a Masters in
Education, as well as a Bachelors in Sociology. In 2011 I received
National Board Certification in Literacy (Reading and Language Arts). In 2019 I completed certification to be a Certified Academic Language Practitioner and a focus with the Orton Gillingham approach.
I strive to have a classroom community that focuses on positivity,
responsible choices, and creating an environment where all children can
succeed while feeling comfortable taking risks in their learning. I believe
children learn best when they feel supported and encouraged. Your
child will receive the additional support from their classmates and
myself. We work hard and have a lot of fun. I absolutely love second grade and I know you and your child will too!
Welcome to my Classroom
