Kindergarten General Studies
Hello families! I am eager to join the CJDS this year as a Kindergarten teacher! Originally from Rhode Island, I decided to stay in my small ocean home state to attend Salve Regina University in Newport, RI. After graduating college in 2016 with my B.S. in Early Childhood Education and minor in Special Education, I was part of The Walt Disney World College Program where I was able to live and work at Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL! I absolutely love going to Disney with my family and traveling in general. When I’m not traveling, I am exploring new coffee shops here in Charlotte, baking new treats, or spending time with my dog, Theo.
When it comes to my teaching philosophy, I believe in teaching to the whole child and making learning fun! Children are all unique and learn in different ways, and I believe this should be seen in day to day life. I make sure to spend time learning about each individual student, his or her likes and dislikes, and what he or she loves about school! If you were to walk into my classroom, I’m sure you would see us singing, dancing, or listening to engaging stories. I’m excited to learn all about my new kindergarten students and their families!
