Mrs. Leake

Welcome to KINDERGARTEN! I cannot wait to teach you this year. We will do lots of learning through hands on discovery, play, and hard work. 

A little bit about me-I have taught for 6 years in kindergarten, T1, and first grade and an additional year of part time reading and math intervention. I love to teach students how to read, watching for those "light bulb" moments where it all clicks is the best! I have a degree in Early Childhood Education from Oklahoma Christian University. Kindergarten is where my heart is-there is SO MUCH I love about this amazing first year!

My husband is also a teacher and coach at the high school level. My two kiddos will be at Akin in 3rd and kindergarten(yay!). I was born and raised in central Texas, but lived in Oklahoma in college and a few years after. My Husband and I moved to central Texas two weeks after my son was born to be near family. We love to travel with our kiddos -mostly to the mountains or the beach. When I am not teaching I love to bake treats or experiment with new recipes, drink coffee and read, or hang out with my family doing something fun.
