Kindergarten

Dear Families,

Welcome to the 2024-2025 school year! I am glad you've become part of our school family. I am looking forward to learning and growing with your child this year as his/her kindergarten teacher. I received a master's degree in TESOL and a Bachelor’s degree in Early Childhood Education. I am also certified in Gifted endorsement, Reading endorsement, ESOL, and Special Education. 

Kindergarten is a time for children to expand their love of learning, their general knowledge, their ability to get along with others, and their interest in reaching out to the world. During this important transition, it is important that children get to be children. For that reason, the young learners in my classroom are exposed to hands on and interactive activities where they can develop their critical thinking.  

I also believe that children learn better when they interact in a safe, nurturing, loving, and challenging environment. With a variety of materials, curriculum, a big classroom to move around in, and others to interact with, your child will love Kindergarten.

I hope that together we can help your child have a successful Kindergarten experience. Communication is the key to your child’s success and to a great parent/teacher relationship. I would love to hear from you, and you are welcome to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns you may have.  

Thank you for trusting me with your child. I’m looking forward to a wonderful year ahead! Ms. Herrera 🍎

My name is Mrs. Mac Loughlin. I have been a teacher for many years  and have found my dream job in this career.

I have a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and an ABA background and a Master degree in Special Education. Also, I was teaching pre school for more than 8 years and worked as an RBT (registered behavior technician) for 3 years. Working with kids has always been something I love and enjoy.

Structure, behavior and routine  are the most important concepts in our classroom. These will help us achieve a successful school year full of learning and engagement.

I have a sweet daughter ready to graduate  at FIU and a loved husband! My favorite hobbies are long walks on the beach, crafts and travel. I love neutral colors, coffee, mate, chocolate and empanadas!!. I hope to all  have an amazing year together.

Kindly,

Mrs. Mac Loughlin
