Hi, families! My name is Tamara Rutkoski! I am so excited to be your child's teacher this school year. I graduated with my undergraduate degree from Cabrini University School of Education in 2022.  This is my third year teaching first grade at Valley View and I have loved every moment of it. Valley View holds a very special place in my heart. It is not only where I started my school years, but it has served as a second home where I discovered that teaching was my true calling and passion. When I'm not teaching, you will probably find me walking my sweet dog, Millie, shopping, or jamming out at a country concert.
