Nancy Hay
5th Grade Team
Hello, Wildcats!
I am excited to share that this year marks my 21st year in the classroom. My passion lies in being creative with my students, and I particularly enjoy incorporating technology into our learning experiences.
Before becoming a teacher, I worked in the banking industry. However, I realized that my true calling was to help develop young minds, which led me to pursue a career in education. I hold certifications in Elementary Education K-6, Reading K-12, ESOL Endorsement, and Middle Grades Social Science 5-9.
Also, I am always eager to add new books to our classroom library. If you would like to support us by purchasing a book, please click the link below.
I am looking forward to a fantastic year in 5th grade!
Planning Time:
Monday - Friday: 12:40 - 1:20 PM
This is when I can schedule parent/teacher conferences.
