Open House 2013!

       

        Special thanks to all of the parents and students who came out to visit our class for Open House. My name is Mrs. Devonne Banks, and I am excited to have the opportunity to work with your child this year.  I am a wife and mother of 3 children: an 11th grade son, 9th grade son, and a 3rd grade daughter.   I have been teaching for 13 years, and have spent every year except one teaching kindergarten.  My favorite color is blue which I'm sure you can tell from your class visit, and I love spending time at the beach. Reading and Writing is my passion, and I hope to build a love for reading in all of my students!  My goal is to provide a safe and supportive learning environment for your child to grow and learn this year.  I believe every student can reach their highest performance when we work together.  My motto is parent + teacher = student success!   I am looking forward to a great year working with your child and family.  One more day and we are ready to blast off into Kindergarten!
