Hello and welcome families to Kean!!
Just a little about myself. My name is Ms. Jones and I graduated from East Stroudsburg University where I received my B.S. in Early Childhood and Special Education. I have taught for over 6 years teaching children in Early Preschool, Pre-School, Pre-K, and Kindergarten. Teaching has always been a passion of mine and I love what I do. This is my first year teaching here at Life Academy.
It's my pleasure to work with you all this year and I am excited to see how much your scholar will learn and grow throughout their time here in first grade!
