Hello! I’m Miss Emma and I am so excited for an incredible year in Kindergarten! This is my third year teaching kindergarten, and my second year here at Willard Elementary!! I graduated from Iowa State University in 2020 with my bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and endorsements in Reading and English/Language Arts. I fall in love with teaching kindergarten more with each year and can’t wait to watch my students grow!
My first day at Willard Elementary started in August of 2012 and I left in the spring of 2018, I am super excited to come back! I am currently a behavior strategist. When I am not at Willard I am spending time with my family. My husband and I have three kids who keep us very busy. I am so excited to be a wildcat (again).
Hello and welcome to kindergarten! My name is Miss Straw and I’m so excited for my third year at Willard! I graduated from the University of Nebraska at Omaha in May 2020 where I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education with a focus in Special Education. Outside of school I love working out, reading, collecting plants, and spending time with family and friends. I am passionate about teaching and I consider my class a family where all students are loved, celebrated, and encouraged to do their best. It’s going to be a great year!
