Hello! My name is Dawn Helbing and I am so excited to be teaching Kindergarten at Lykins! This is my 10th year teaching. I have previously taught 1st grade in Richardson ISD and Kindergarten in Frisco ISD. I took some time off to stay home with my 4 kids, but have loved being back in the classroom the last few years! 🥰

I have 3 daughters and 1 son. My oldest daughter Emma and my son Andrew graduated from Celina High School. My daughter is pursuing nursing school and my son is off to Texas Tech this year to start his journey into Mechanical Engineering. My twins Allie and Avery will be in the 7th grade at Moore MS.  My husband is a retired Fort Worth firefighter and we have lived in Celina for 8 years!  We love this town! 🧡

I am thrilled to start this journey into Kindergarten with all of you!🏫
