Welcome to 3rd Grade!
Welcome to 3rd grade! I am so excited to meet each and every one of you. I would love to introduce myself and let you know a little bit about myself. I am married with three children. There is my husband Greg, daughters, Emma (15) and, Kaitlyn (13), and my son Aidan (11). We spend most of our free time watching/playing hockey, tennis and volleyball. The five of us moved to Colorado 9 years ago from the Phoenix area where I was born and raised. I earned my BS in Biology from Arizona State University (Go Devils!!!) and my Master’s in Education through the University of Phoenix. I am also an avid reader, play tennis, and love to spend time with my family.
I am looking forward to getting to know each of your children. Teaching is my passion and I believe that each year brings new adventures and challenges. This year will be a special year for your child and I am blessed to be a part of it. Please know that I have an open door policy and want to hear what your thoughts and feelings are concerning your child and their learning experience. I am convinced that it takes a village to raise a child and that the cooperation between teacher and parent is imperative for a successful education. I’m looking forward to a fabulous year!
Sincerely,
Lara Castro
