Hello sweet families, I can't wait to meet you at Orientation on August 4th from 11-1 or 4-6. This year I will be teaching English Language Arts and Social Studies. Ms. Stephanie Hughes will be my teaching partner, and she will teach Math and Science! Make sure to complete your Emergency Contact form on your child’s skyward account.
I want you to get to know me a little bit since we will be spending a lot of time together this school year. This will be my 11th Year teaching 5th grade at the Villages Charter School. I graduated from UCF with my Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education in 2015. My husband, Justin, and I have two sweet and adorable kids, Hudson (9 entering 4th grade) and Ellie Kate (7 entering 2nd grade).
I am so excited to have you be a part of my school family this year! We are going to do some incredible things and grow together so much! I can’t wait to watch you be the best YOU that YOU can be! This is going to be the best year EVER!
Love,
Mrs. Davis
