About Mrs. Walters...
I am so excited to be teaching at Lake in the Hills Elementary School.
I have been teaching for eleven years. I taught fourth
grade in Waukegan my very first year of teaching. Then I accepted a position
teaching second grade in Addison School District. I taught second grade for two
years and then moved to fourth grade where I stayed for the last five years.
This will be my third year at Lake in the Hills. My
heart is with fourth grade. I LOVE teaching and I especially love students at
this particular grade level. I always knew that I wanted to be a teacher. I
vividly remember setting up a classroom in the basement of my childhood home
where I would "teach" my very own class everyday after school.
I currently live in Algonquin with my husband Shawn who works for the Palatine
Fire Department. We have two children. We have a daughter named Mackenzie who
is four and a son named Bradley who is two. We also have a very energetic
border collie named Boci (pronounced Bocce but her name means kisses in
Italian). As a family, we love doing outdoor activites such as swimming and
going to the park. We love to watch Disney movies (and visit Mickey when we
can). We also LOVE watching and cheering on The Chicago Blackhawks! Some of my
hobbies include working out, shopping, reading and completing art/craft projects. I also
LOVE listening to music. I would much rather sit in a room and listen to music than watch
t.v. When I do watch t.v., I really enjoy watching Survivor, Kitchen Nightmares
and The Biggest Loser.
I am looking forward to a fun year full of many successes and accomplishments. I
am so excited for this school year and can't wait to meet and get to know all of my
students and their families as well!
