Hello! I am Ms. Simmons, a 5th grade teacher here at Scribner Middle School. If you're on this page, hopefully that means I have the privilege of having your student in my class!
Here is a little bit of information about me:
1. I love to run! I have run 3 mini-marathons, and am training to run my first ever full marathon this December.
2. This is my fourth year teaching at Scribner. I have spent two years teaching 6th grade, and this will be my second year in 5th grade.
3. Over the summer, I was very busy! I went to Texas to visit friends, and also got engaged! We are planning to marry in July of 2016, so this will be my last school year as Miss Simmons. Next year, I will be Mrs. Dillard.
School is a mix of academic knowledge and social knowledge. Not only will your student need to pay attention to the subjects covered and study, I also require that they develop their social skills to show respect, teamwork, and acceptance of others. I plan on taking a hands-on approach to the subjects I will be teaching. Every student is unique, and I plan on that being reflected in their work here at Scribner. My goal is to have confident, hard-working, respectful, and problem solving students by the end of the school year. Together, we can make this happen.
As the school year continues, I look forward to getting to know you and your student. I am a big believer in the importance of working with you and your student in order for them to blossom not only in the classroom but also in life. Please do not hesitate to call me, e-mail me, or schedule a meeting face to face. My contact information can be accessed by clicking the tab labeled "Contact" at the top right corner of the page.
I am so excited to continue to communicate with you throughout the year!
