Welcome to the 2011-2012 school year!
Dear Parents and Families:
I want to extend to you and your child my warmest welcome into our classroom. My name is Mrs. Nelson and I will be your child’s Teacher this year. This will be my third year at Rolling Hills but my first as the Language Arts teacher and I am so excited about continuing to be part of such an outstanding academic institution. I have almost twenty years of experience teaching and coaching youth of all ages and I look forward to sharing my passion for learning with your child. I graduated from Washington State University with a degree in Kinesiology and a minor in Spanish, and then continued my education earning a Master’s degree in Education from Northern Arizona University.
In my free time, I enjoy photography, exercising, and spending time with my husband Jamal and our almost 3-year-old twins, Lucia & Sawyer. I love traveling, and have been blessed to travel throughout Europe, Scandinavia, Mexico and even Africa! I hope to cross many more countries off my bucket list one day.
My philosophy for learning is that each child is unique, and each child learns in a different way. One of my jobs as a teacher is to help your child discover his or her individuality and provide an environment in which it will flourish. I believe in hands-on experiences, learning creatively and learning through play. I am really looking forward to a fun–filled and educational year!
I am looking forward to interacting with you and your child this upcoming school year. If you have any questions please feel free to contact me.
Best regards,
Tracy M. Nelson
