About Mrs. Freeman
Welcome!
My name is Shiloh Freeman, and I am so excited to be your scholar's art teacher! This will be my 23nd year teaching, and my fourth year teaching at Canyon Ridge. It's my first year teaching art, however! I come from a long line of educators starting with my great grandmother. I taught at Sunset Hills for 12 years before moving to Canyon Ridge. Prior to moving to Surprise in 2008, I taught for seven years in Colorado (where I was also born and raised). I have taught 2nd-5th grades, and love teaching each grade level for different reasons. I have also been fortunate to "loop" with my scholars three times.
I attended Adams State College (now Adams State University) and earned my Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. I minored in Mass Communications, and worked for the newspaper in my community for two years. In 2007, I earned my Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction. I have always loved working with kids, and truly believe that education is my calling. It's what I was meant to do.
In my spare time, I enjoy running, reading, and spending time with my friends and family. I enjoy traveling, and believe that reading takes us anywhere. I have been fortunate to see some amazing cities and meet incredible people.
As a teacher, my mission is educate your child the way I would like for mine to be educated. I believe strongly in the relationships I have with my scholars and with parents. I strive to build positive relationships with everyone in my school family. As an art teacher, I plan to have scholars use choice based centers in grades K-4. I am so excited for this new endeavor!
Let's have an amazing year!
