Meet the Teacher

Hello! My name is Mary Kristen Vasile. After graduating with degrees in Philosophy and English Literature from the College of New Jersey, I joined Teach For America and began teaching kindergarten in Phoenix, Arizona. My career eventually brought me to Austin, Texas. I have been teaching for 12 years and I have been a proud Hornsby Hounddog for the last 8 years. I love teaching kindergarten here at Hornsby.

Ms. Vasile's Favorite Things:

  • Favorite color: red and green
  • Favorite drink: water
  • Favorite dessert: vanilla cupcakes
  • Favorite fruit: apples
  • Favorite store: target or hobby lobby

When I'm not teaching, I like to read mystery books. I love Christmas time and penguins. For more information about me, you can check out my page in the "All About Your Teacher" binder, which is located in the Front Office.
