My Students

Wow! I am almost through my 40th year of teaching. The past thirty-nine years have been filled with laughter, tears, smiling faces, and loads of learning. This year is proving to be no different. Teaching is the most rewarding job in the world. I am blessed to have this opportunity.

Our school is a family.

We treasure each family represented at our school. We work hard to foster a positive home-school connection. We celebrate each other's successes and offer encouragement when someone is struggling.

My Project

"Is Miss Teresa coming today?" used to be a common question in our kindergarten classrooms. Until this year, it had been several years since the answer had been "Yes!" Our students this year have enjoyed getting to know Miss Teresa. With your help, we can make sure this wonderful program continues next year.

Kindergarten students love to sing, dance and move!

The Creative Arts for Kindergarten programs provided by Teresa Davis do that plus so much more! Mrs. Davis would visit our school once a month for an hour long program. We need to split our kindergarten classes into two groups since she uses props.

From Mrs. Davis - "My 2017-2018 curriculum : introduction : I hear and I forget , I see and I remember , I do and I understand . I believe through creative arts and allowing the children to totally be active and involved they get so much more out of my program and remember it longer if not forever . I always include all forms of " The Arts", all kindergarten basic fundamentals. I will be including:

September: The Music In Me

October: My Magical World

November: Silly Symphony

December: Angel Choir

January: Shake, Rattle and Rock

February: Jump and Jive

March: Rhythm Sticks Rock

April: Rockin' Aerobics

May: Kaleidoscope

As you know, my programs include so much more - all including stories, drama, music, dance and movement, crafts, games, costumes, props galore and more."

As you can tell, these programs would be perfect for our kindergarten students. Our kindergarten students only receive 30 minutes of a structured music class each month. Your support will mean so much to us.
