Hello students and families! Welcome to 3^rd Grade! My name is Heather Freund (pronounced friend) and I will be your 3rd grade teacher this year! I am looking forward to getting to know your student and more about your family throughout the school year, but first here is a little more about me! I come from a small family farm in Southwest Iowa. I graduated last spring with my Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education. This is my fourth year at St. Gregory’s, and my second year as a teacher. Ever since I was a young girl I knew I wanted to spend my days with children because they bring such a joy into every little moment throughout the day that is indescribable. Besides teaching, I enjoy reading, baking, and spending time with my family and friends. If you have any questions about how this year will look feel free to reach out and contact me via email.
