My name is Mrs. Baird and I am so EXCITED to be apart of the Kanab Elementary 6th grade team, But more importantly I am THRILLED to be your teacher! It is going to a fun year with lots of learning and new adventures. I cant wait to start learning along side of the students and also to see what this year has in store for us! I want to know all about my students, but I think it would only be fair for me to tell you about myself.
My Childhood
I was born and raised in Spanish Fork, Utah. I come from a family of four made up of 1 brother and me, I am the baby of the family. Al through growing up I always loved being out doors and spending time with my family. I became involved with sports at a young age and spent most of my time at the ball park. (It became my second home during the summers.) As my brother and I grew up so did my family. I have one niece (who is a very sassy!) and one nephew (Who is happy just to be around.) In March of 2018 I married my better half and started a new chapter in my live.
My Education
Education has always been a big part of my life. As long as I can remember I have always wanted to be teacher. At a young age I would line up my stuffed animals and begin to teach them things on my white board. Once I graduated from Spanish Fork High School I traveled down south where I attended my first three years of college at SUU. This is where I fell in LOVE with this beautiful part of Utah. After receiving my Associate Degree I moved back home where I was part of the education program at UVU. During my time there I was given the opportunity to fly across seas and finished up my student teaching in Zurich, Switzerland. This was an amazing experience where I learned a lot about myself and the kind of teacher I hope to be.
