My name is Shannon Janda and I am excited to be your child's teacher. This is my eighth year teaching at Parkside. For the past seven years I have taught second grade. I am so excited to teach third grade this year!
I am from Houston, Texas. I attended the College of Education at Texas A&M University. After completing my education I moved to Cypress, Texas and taught kindergarten for three years there. I have also been a preschool director and a P.E. teacher.
When I am not at school I enjoy spending time with my husband Lucas, and our three children Cade, Carson, and Chloe. Cade is 14 and a freshman at Rouse. Carson and Chloe are eight years old and they are twins! They are in third grade here at Parkside. Cade's favorite thing is sports- especially football and baseball. This year he will be playing football for Rouse. Go Raiders! Carson and Chloe love their big brother and each other- most of the time! They also love doing gymnastics and Taekwondo.
I believe the most important thing is to provide a safe and nurturing environment for your child. This environment should help your child build their strengths and improve their weaknesses. We will work together in our classroom to build a supportive learning environment.
I will try to respond to phone messages and email as soon as possible. I will check my emails and return phone calls during my conference time each day. My conference time is 10:45-11:35. Email is the easiest way to contact me.
My email address is shannon.janda@leanderisd.org.
I am looking forward to a great year!
