Hi! My name is Lisa H. Smith and I will be your child’s teacher this year. Gail Williams is my teaching assistant. Gail and I have worked together for 22 years! We go together like peanut butter and jelly! I live with my husband, David, of 23 years, our two sons Kelly, 16, Carson, 14, and our dog Lucy. I am a 1991 Early Childhood graduate from Winthrop University. I received my National Board Certification in 2001. I have taught kindergarten at Richmond Drive for 25 years. Needless to say, I love teaching kindergarten and I am extremely excited about this year. You will be amazed at what your little one will learn this year. I look forward to seeing you soon.

Hola…My name is Rebeca Garcia. I am currently working on a BS degree in Elementary Education from Liberty University! This will be my seventh year in the immersion program at Richmond Drive. I enjoy teaching children at this age and have such a passion for what they are learning. I’m married for 16 years to my husband Isaac. We have 2 boys and a dog Willy. My oldest son, Isaac is 14 and Isaiah is 12. I enjoy spending time with my family. We like to play games, go on bike rides, and visit our extended family in N.J. Don’t forget when you see us; we can only speak Spanish to you. We do not want the children to know that we speak English… we don’t want to lose the magic! J Sincerely, Señora Notaro and Señora Garcia [email protected] [email protected] |
