Welcome to Kindergarten!

My name is Mrs. Newman. This is my 7th year teaching at St. Linus. Before coming to St. Linus, I taught for 5 years at St. Cletus school in LaGrange IL. I am very excited for this school year to start!

I graduated from Eastern Illinois University in 2010 with a bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education. I have a master’s degree in Reading and am a certified reading specialist. I love to read and hope to spark an early love of reading in the kindergarten students.

When I am not teaching I love spending time with my family especially my five year old son Fitz and three year old son Beau. I also enjoy traveling, shopping, relaxing, and of course reading!
