My name is Mrs. Perry and I am your kindergarten teacher this year! I am so excited to meet you. I can't wait to hear all about the adventures you have been on this summer. Here is a little about me.
I have been a teacher for 14 years now. I started teaching in the Kent School District and taught first and second grades. Then I moved up to Issaquah and have taught third grade at Endeavour and Grand Ridge. Last year I was the reading specialist here at Grand Ridge.
I grew up down the road a little bit in Bellevue and attended Newport High School. From then I went on to continue my studies at the University of California, Berkeley where I majored in psychology with an emphasis in child development. After graduating, I worked at a Montessori school for a year. Then I went to graduate school at the University of Puget Sound to get my Masters degree.
I am mom of two young boys, Jameson (3 1/2) and Logan (10 months) and married to Brian. We love to spend time outdoors. Our favorite thing to do is to go camping.
In addition to being a teacher and a mom, I also enjoy photography and own my own business called True Light Photography.
I am looking forward to spending the year with you and excited for all of our learning adventures we will go on!
Cool! I'm glad that you have this blog and it's neat that you're a professional photographer too! Looking forward to pictures and starting our first year with you! Nicholas is very excited to be in your class.

LOVE that you have a blog!! Owen's first words after school today, "From the first second I walked in the door, I was having fun!" This from the boy who asked not to go to school for months. Thanks!
