My name is Brittney Aldridge, this is my sixth year teaching and my fourth year here in Celina! I am a graduate of Austin College in Sherman, where I received both my Bachelors and my Masters degree. Go Roos! Kindergarten is truly where it's at for me, I knew from my first education class that I wanted to be a kindergarten teacher and have yet to change my mind about that.

I have a Bojack (Boston Terrier/Jack Russell Mix) named Toki and he is my world, I’m sure you will hear all about him as the year goes on. I love to paint and draw in my free time when I’m not finding something new to binge-watch or spending time with Toki. I am also very into thrifting, I love finding treasures, bargains, and the thrill of the hunt. I collect all sorts of quirky/kitschy things.

In my classroom we are a family, I strive to foster that from day one. Relationships are the foundation for learning and it is important that those relationships be positive so that you can build a love of learning. I believe very much in independence and being a problem solver and peacemaker. I challenge “my kids” to be critical thinkers and solution finders. Routines and procedures are a huge part of how my classroom functions, I believe this helps the kids build independence.

Communication is a two way street with teachers and parents, please do not hesitate to reach out to me either through Remind101 or email. I aim to keep parents as informed as I can with what all that is going on in our class and with their child.

I look forward to another great year at Celina Primary School! The best kids are here in Celina and I am so fortunate to get to teach them.

Love,

Miss Aldridge

Please check your child's folder each day. This will be where behavior notes, daily notes, sight words, and other information will be sent home. This is also where you will send notes to school. I will not be checking backpacks so please utilize the blue folder when sending anything to school with your child.
