🌟 Meet Our Staff! 🌟
This week we're highlighting our PAWsome Kindergarten Team! Four seasoned pros, they consistently transform our youngest Cougars into leaders and learners who understand what it means to be part of the ATK Family.
📚 Mrs. Guidry can best be described as cool, calm, and collected. With 34 years of experience, she knows just how to make learning fun but structured! In addition to being a kindergarten TA, she's also our Testing Coordinator, going above and beyond to make sure that testing days run as smoothly as possible.
🖍️ Mrs. Dillon thrives in the chaos and excitement of kindergarten! In her classroom, she creates core memories through fun events, fully committing to dress up days, and celebrating everyone's strengths. She is also a leader outside of the classroom, volunteering to sponsor Girls on the Run and always being there to lend a helping hand!
📎 Mrs. Thompson's classroom is a place of fun and learning, proving that both can happen simultaneously. When she's not taking the lead with her kindergarteners, she leads in the school, serving our School Improvement Team as the Committee Chair for several years. She assumes all her roles with quiet confidence and knowledge, with her sights set on the betterment of our school community.
📓 Mrs. Finster is in her third year at Atkinson, but you'd never guess she was anything other than a Cougar! She has quickly learned the ropes and assimilated into our family, becoming a familiar face in the halls and car rider line. She is always eager to help a student or staff member in need and always does it with a smile.
Thank you kinder-team for your dedication to ATK!
