Hello families! My name is Juliana Blanchard and I am so thrilled to get to know all of you this year.

I was born and raised in Brenham, Texas (home of Blue Bell Ice cream) where I met my high school sweetheart, Daniel. You may know him as Reagan's Performing Arts teacher! 🙂 We got married in May of 2022 and have an adorable, fluffy cat named Maeve. Throughout high school I was involved in the band, and my love of music took me to Texas State University to major in Music Education. However, while at TXST I realized my love for early childhood education and graduated with a degree in Elementary Education in December of 2021. My career in education began at Rutledge Elementary where I was a first grade teacher for 3 years. I truly have a passion for learning so I decided to obtain my Masters degree in Elementary Education through Texas State's Teacher Fellows program, and graduated in August of 2023. This will be my second year teaching Kindergarten at Reagan! In my free time, I enjoy rock climbing, embroidery, reading, and traveling when I can! My hope as a teacher is to convey the joys of learning to our littlest students.

I am looking forward to an amazing year! 🥰
