Hello!

Welcome to a great new school year!

I am very excited to have your child in my room this year!  We have many incredible things to learn and I can't wait for this awesome year to begin!

I would like to introduce myself to you!  This is my twenty-fourth  year of teaching!  I taught one year at W. S. Ryan, sixteen years at Ginnings Elementary, and the rest of the years here at Sam Houston.

I grew up in a small West Texas town of Big Spring.  I came to Denton to attend the University of North Texas and have been here ever since!

I have a son named Reid, who will be a Senior at the University of Arkansas.  He is studying Business and Supply Chain Management.  He is a Denton Ryan graduate - class of 2022.   

We have 3 kitties - Biscuit, AJ BB McFatty, and Turtle.  You will hear many funny stories about them!

I am so blessed to have had the opportunity to teach 3rd and 4th grades and have been a Math Specialist over the years.  I know that together we can make a difference in our students lives.

Let's have a great year! 

Love, Ms. Layton
