Angelina Gaskin

My name is Angelina Gaskin, and I am so excited to welcome you and

your child to first grade! I recently graduated from the University of

Houston–Clear Lake with a degree in PreK–3rd Grade Education, and I

am thrilled to begin this journey as your child’s teacher.

My passion for education began during high school when I participated

in a mentorship program at McWhirter Elementary. Since then, I’ve

been committed to working with young learners and helping them grow

both academically and personally. Most recently, I completed my

student teaching in a first-grade classroom at Parker Elementary, where

I gained valuable experience in classroom management, lesson

planning, and building strong student relationships.

In our classroom, I aim to create a safe, welcoming, and engaging

learning environment where every child feels supported and

encouraged. I believe that learning should be fun and that every

student deserves to be challenged, celebrated, and heard. I also

emphasize respect, curiosity, and kindness, and I work hard to model

those values every day.

I believe that strong communication between home and school is key to

student success. You can expect regular updates about what we’re

learning and how your child is progressing. Please don’t hesitate to

reach out if you ever have questions or just want to connect—I truly

value your partnership.

Thank you for the opportunity to be part of your child’s first grade

experience. I’m looking forward to an amazing year filled with learning,

laughter, and growth!
