Hello! My name is McKenna Troeger, and I am so excited to be your child’s 3rd grade ELAR and Social Studies teacher! I will be partnering with Mrs. Saur, who will be teaching Math and Science. This school year marks my 9th year in education. Previously, I taught 3rd and 4th grade in Frisco, and in the beautiful state of Colorado, where I grew up. I have a Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education, Special Education, and Early Childhood Education. I also hold my ESL certification and a Master’s in Library Science with a School Librarian Certification.

I have been married to my husband, Derek, for five years. Together, we have two boys, Kohen (3) and Callahan (10 months). Outside of school, I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, as well as with our mini goldendoodle, Paisley! I also love going on walks, trying new restaurants, and reading.

I am always eager to grow and learn alongside my students and am excited to begin the new school year. I believe strong relationships are the foundation of meaningful learning, and I strive to create an inclusive, engaging classroom. I also challenge students to think deeply, grow, and reach their full potential. Please feel free to reach out at any time—I look forward to partnering with you this year!

In addition to email, 3rd grade will be using ClassDojo! It’s a great way to stay connected and see all the amazing things your child will be doing throughout the year, along with important grade-level reminders. A parent QR code will be provided at Meet the Teacher. 

Thursday folders will be sent each Thursday with graded work, school flyers, and class reminders. Please return Thursday Folders to school the following day.

Please keep a Ziplock back of extra clothes in your child's backpack in case they have an accident at school or get dirty and need to change. Label the bag with your child's first and last name. Please make sure to swap out the clothes to fit the changing weather.

Please include:

1. underwear

2. socks

3. shirt 

4. pants
