I am pleased to welcome you to the 2024 - 2025 school year! I am looking forward to having your child as a student. In order to have a fun year, my most important goal is to create a family of learners in my classroom. I am committed to creating a classroom environment where your child is a valued, trusted, and integral part of our family of learners. In order to accomplish this, I have planned a variety of activities to emphasize and reinforce this goal. It is my hope that you will support and encourage this vision at home.
Hello! I am Emilce Newell, and I am 31 years old. I live in Tooele with my husband, Zander, and our two children. Zander and I met online and have been together for 5 years and married for 3! Our son, Teagan, is 11 years old, and our daughter, Liliana, is 2 years old. They keep us busy!
I am a graduate of Tooele High School and attended both Snow College, where I focused on music education for 3 years, and Western Governors University. I received my Bachelor of Arts in Educational Studies in Mild to Moderate Exceptionalities, Special Education, in November 2024. I have plans to eventually return to school to earn a Master's degree in administration.
My passion is to advocate for students. I truly believe that when students and parents work together, magic truly happens for all students. I do believe that all students can learn! I am excited to work hard to help students make progress this school year.
I have played the violin since I was 5 years old. I have played with musicians such as Jenny Oaks Baker and the Piano Guys! I learned how to play the violin using the Suzuki method and grew up performing and competing in solo competitions. Currently, I am the Concert Master and a board member of the Tooele County Symphony. Music is one of my first loves. I am passionate about sharing that love and music with everyone I can.
