FUN FACTS ABOUT MRS. Howard:#

WHY DID YOU BECOME A TEACHER?

"I have always had a love for children. From being a teenager helping my mother teach in the Cradle Roll department at church, to helping with Vacation Bible School. I also enjoyed helping children and their families when I was working as a Marriage and Family Therapist."

TEACHING PHILOSOPHY?

"Kindergarten is an important time of transition for young children ~ a stepping stone between home, early childhood education and the primary grades of school. It is a 'Children's Garden', where young ones, uniquely created in God's image, are nurtured to think, learn, choose and grow. I want to create a fun and exciting learning experience for my Kindergarten students that will last throughout their academic career."
