Dear First Grade Families,
Welcome to 1st Grade! I would like to take this opportunity to introduce myself. My name is Shannon Wing and I will be your child’s teacher for the 2023-2024 school year at Western Peaks. I currently live in Surprise with my husband, Justin. We just celebrated our 18th wedding anniversary. We have 3 children - Dylan is 23 and is a graduate from the University of Arizona. Ashton is 15 and a sophomore at Willow Canyon. My daughter Allison is 13 an 8th grader at Canyon Ridge. I attended Arizona State University and graduated with a Bachelor's Degree in Elementary Education. After graduation, I taught 4th grade in the Washington Elementary School District. When my middle child was born, I became a stay at home mom. After 9 years at home, I returned to the classroom 8 years ago. My philosophy is that all students are capable of reaching their full potential with a supportive school and home environment. I am committed to provide that for you and your child. Parents are a child’s original teacher and are the largest influence on their life. I am so excited to meet you all and look forward to a successful school year! If you have any questions please feel free to call or email me!
