I am so excited that you are here and for the opportunity to get to know you!

I recently graduated from Southern Oregon University with my bachelors degree in Elementary Education.  This is my second year teaching and I am so excited to teach 2nd grade!

I have lived in Southern Oregon my whole life and it is where my husband and I raise our children and a small herd of cattle! I love to run, garden, explore, bake and spend time with my family. I really enjoy spending time with children and find that when I am with them, I am my happiest; which is partly why I want to be a teacher. But, I mainly want to be a teacher to make a positive impact in the lives of children. I want my classroom to be a fun, creative place where children feel comfortable to express who they are, grow, ask questions and make masterpieces!

If you have any questions, connections, or want to tell me a little bit about yourself, then please feel free to reach out to me!

I look forward to spending the next year with you and us getting to know each other!

With much enthusiasm,

Mrs. Dean
