Dear Families,

Welcome to kindergarten and Kilmer Elementary School!  Kindergarten is a year of significant growth developmentally, academically and socially.  I am honored to part of your child’s life during this time.

I have been teaching at Kilmer Elementary since 2015 and feel privileged to be part of this exceptional learning community.

I have a B.A. in Psychology from the University of Colorado at Colorado Springs and an Elementary Education Degree from Regis University.  I am a Black Forest native and LP alumni.  In my spare time I enjoy equestrian events, hiking, camping, reading, and playing board games with my family.  We have a small farm of horses, chickens, cats and our wonderful black lab, Frannie.

I am looking forward to a partnership with parents for a successful and wonderful year of kindergarten.

Fondly,

Maria Brown

I have five classroom expectations to allow student learning in a positive environment:

1. Looking eyes and listening ears on the speaker

2.  Say the magic words: please, thank you and I'm sorry

3.  Always be honest

4.  Be a caring friend

5.  Always try your best
