Thanks for stopping in! Let's have a great adventure!
Dear Students and Parents,
I would like to introduce myself to you, I am Mrs. Edwards-Hill (the students know me as Mrs. Hill) and I am excited to be your child's teacher!
I have experience teaching all grades kindergarten through middle school and I am really excited to be teaching at VLA! My family is rooted in education and I am passionate about the profession. I have comfort and knowledge in the upper grades as I spent a lot of time in middle school grade classrooms. (PLEASE SEE BOTTOM OF PAGE FOR MORE "ABOUT ME")
As your child's teacher, our goals for this program are:
- We believe that students must see value in themselves and their educational experience before they can be fully present at school and committed to long-term success. We believe three main principles must be in place:
- The program must recognize that its commitment to each student's academic success and personal development are inextricably linked. The goal is to instill the passion of becoming a “life-long learner”
- Staff members must create a nurturing, individualized environment and model the values that they teach, i.e. academic excellence and personal growth must be hallmarks of all adults that students encounter.
- Curriculum must be set up to prepare students to succeed in pursuing educational goals beyond our school, allow them flexibility and the ability to apply their learning to solve relevant problems, and engage productively in their communities
Over the next few weeks we will be getting to know each other better and I am interested in finding out about the students and their families!
I am very enthusiastic about being a part of your class! If you have any questions please feel free to contact me by calling the school, or by emailing me at [email protected] which I check quite regularly. If you feel that you want to meet with me, please email to set up a time for us to get acquainted.
Thank you and I look forward to meeting you!
Mrs. Hill
