About Ms. Casey
This is my 11th year teaching at Warm Springs. Since I've been teaching at WS, I have taught 3rd grade, 4th grade, and 5th grade! I am very excited to get this new year started.
I live in San Jose and do not currently have any children or pets. I live in San Jose with my fiancé, and we will be getting married in November!
I love reading, exercising at Orangetheory, baking, and the beach! I really enjoy going boogie-boarding in the ocean. I also love traveling, and have been trying to reach all 50 states! I have currently visited 18. I wonder if I'll visit any new ones this year....
I'm sure you'll learn lots more about me as the year goes on, just like I plan to learn all about each of you this year, too!
This was in South Korea at the Star Library (it's a library in a mall!) during the summer of 2024.
