My name is Mrs. Stafford and I will be your child’s teacher. This is my 9
th year of teaching. I have been at TK since I began teaching. I taught Special Education in our K-3 Special Day Class for the first three years. I moved to 1
st grade General Education 6 years ago. I love teaching First Grade!! This is going to be a fun and exciting year for all of us. I’m really excited to be teaching your child. In creating successful, life-long learners, I support and encourage students to become respectful, responsible, and resourceful thinking individuals, capable of working cooperatively as well as independently. Students and I will establish a learning environment where they feel safe, loved, cared for, and everyone fits in. In creating a sense of belonging and identity, students will feel comfortable and confident in participating in a positive and pro-active learning environment. First Grade is a special place where little minds come to learn and grow with new and exciting things. Please enjoy this year through your little one’s eyes. You will see how truly amazing it is to watch them blossom this year!!!!
