Welcome!
Hi! My name is Ms. Tesar, and I’m so excited to be a part of the Savannah Elementary family for my 4th year and to begin my 5th year in education. Before becoming a teacher, I proudly served as a veteran in the United States Air Force for 6 years, where I developed a strong foundation in leadership, organization, and teamwork that I now carry into the classroom every day.

After my military service, I earned my degree from the University of North Texas and followed my passion for teaching. I’ve had the joy of teaching many students over the years — some of whom I first met in 3rd grade — and I’m thrilled to see familiar faces returning to my classroom this year!

I’m also a proud Savannah parent with two daughters here at school — one in 5th grade and one in Pre-K. Being both a parent and a teacher in the same community is incredibly rewarding, and I cherish the connections we’re able to build.

Outside the classroom, my daughters and I live with my amazing boyfriend, his energetic 4-year-old son, and our sweet new dog, Hank. Life is full of fun, laughter, and a little bit of chaos — just the way we like it! I’m also currently enrolled in a program to earn my Real Estate License, always working toward personal growth and new opportunities.

I’m looking forward to an incredible year filled with learning, discovery, and connection. Let’s make it the best one yet!

Students will complete multiple assignments on Google Classroom throughout the year. Once students are linked, parents will be able to join as well to see student progress. Please check your email for an invite!  

Join the 5th Grade Facebook page to connect with other parents, share photos, and stay up to date with all the happenings! 

 I strive to create an environment that feels cozy and welcoming where students can be successful in learning and growing. Any purchases made from our class wishlist will be shipped directly to the school! Thank you for partnering with me in your child's education!
