Welcome to the 2026-2027 School Year! I am so excited to begin another school year at Kinard, and I am especially excited to be starting my third year here! It is such a joy to be part of this school community and to have the opportunity to learn and grow alongside our students each year.

This year is full of new opportunities, new challenges, and plenty of moments to celebrate. My goal is to create a welcoming and supportive space where every student feels valued, encouraged, and confident in their ability to grow. 

I am looking forward to a wonderful year filled with learning, laughter, growth, and lots of accomplishments. Let's make it a great year together!
