Meet Our Team

"I am honored to help students start their educational journey. I strive to create a welcoming environment where children feel safe and supported as they grow socially, emotionally, and academically towards becoming respectful, responsible citizens in our community. "

“My favorite thing about teaching kindergarten is... creating a classroom where children feel loved and accepted, allowing them to grow into creative, curious and kind kindergarten learners, and then watching as the magic happens.” 

"My favorite part of kindergarten at WKES is seeing all the upper class students bringing their siblings and friends to class every morning and going in to get a hug from their kindergarten teachers. The love and passion for children is bursting from their teachers every day."

“Kindergarten is big milestone for all children! It’s a place where children grow in English while strengthening their home language. Children are learning through play, rich conversations, structured routines and meaningful connections.”
