Teacher Bio:
Welcome to Immaculate Heart of Mary’s PK4 classroom where learning is fun. We believe that a nurturing relationship with each child lays the groundwork for good behavior. We want children to feel a sense of belonging and safety. In our classroom your child will learn through purposeful play. Students will enjoy five centers daily which include dramatic play, construction, library, sensory, and reading/writing. Each center is themed with our monthly unit of study to encourage creative play for a great learning experience.
I grew up in North Little Rock and still live there today. I went to Saint Edward's Catholic School for K through 8th and attended Mount Saint Mary Academy for school. I graduated from UCA where I earned my bachelor's of Science in addiction studies in 2021. I currently attend Saint Edward's Catholic Church where I play the violin with the Hispanic choir.
I am so thankful to be a part of a beautiful and welcoming community at IHM and I look forward to this schoolyear with your children!
