| Timpanogos Elementary School |
On April 1st (April Fool's Day) I was offered a job next year teaching 3rd grade at Timpanogos Elementary School! I am so excited. I am teaching 3rd grade right now at Timpanogos. It is so nice know that I already have a job and that I don't have to take down my room and put it back up in another school. All I have to do is just organize it now and keep the things that I want and really need. I love all of the people at my school and especially my 3rd grade team. They are the best.
