Welcome, I'm Kayla Flanagin! A little about me; I'm 26 years old, married to my best friend, Patrick, and live in Austin. We have one fur baby, Peyton, and we're expecting our first human baby in February! I grew up in Mont Belvieu, TX. I am a graduate of Sam Houston State University in Huntsville, TX. This will be my 5th year as an educator. I have taught pre-k, 1st, and 2nd grade. I'm certified in general education through 6th grade, Gifted and Talented, and English as a second language. I am passionate about education and consider myself a life-long learner. I happily welcome new experiences and opportunities.
In my free time I enjoy traveling, exploring new places, live music, dancing, and outdoors activities. When I'm relaxing at home you can find me reading a historical fiction novel, watching movies, and spending time with my family . I am incredibly excited about this year at Sycamore Springs Elementary. We have lots of learning to do, but we are going to have a ton of fun! My goal this year is to create individualized and memorable experience for each student in my classroom. I hope they find it to be a welcoming place where they build relationships and accomplish goals. In our classroom we will encourage creativity and independence, welcome curiosity and exploration, and learn from our mistakes. It's going to be a wonderful adventure. |
