• I am so excited to be teaching Kindergarten this year! I have spent the last year assisting in a Montessori classroom with 2-6 year olds. Even though I have never taught Kindergarten, I will be utilizing all I have learned in the Montessori classroom along with my previous years of teaching elementary school to help me. This will be my fourth year as a public school elementary teacher. Previously I taught in 3rd & 4th grade at a Dual Language Magnet school in Topeka. I am looking forward to the year ahead, and I am overjoyed to join the Sunflower family!
