Background: I grew up in Omaha, Nebraska. I am the oldest of four in my family. My name is Jaclyn Schenzel! My husband, Tyler & I have been married for 4 years! In June, we had our first daughter Ezri Quinn. We have an adorable pit-bull terrier named Bam.

Education & Experience: I graduated from the University of Nebraska- Lincoln in 2014 with a degree in Inclusive Early Childhood Education. This past May, I completed my Master’s degree in Early Childhood Special Education. This will be my sixth year teaching preschool at Thomas Elementary. I love being a part of the Thomas family and I am eager to make year six the best year yet!

My experience has taught me how exciting preschool can be and what an amazing opportunity I have to be a preschool teacher. I feel that preschool is one of the most important years in a child’s life. What we do in the classroom this year will have an impact on how your child views school and learning for the rest of his/her life. My goal is to have a fun and engaging year that leads to creativity, discovery, and a love of learning.
