What do you enjoy most about working in a K-8 School? I enjoy that students get to interact with their teachers from childhood all the way through adolescence - these are formative years, and the stability of having familiar faces who have helped shape them through these years is so critical to their launch into high school.
Welcome to our team Mrs. Atwood! We are so happy to have you!
