Meet Mrs. King
Hello! I am Mrs. King and I love teaching young minds. I enjoy creating fun and engaging activities for first graders and working with families. There is so much growth in First grade and I love being a part of guiding them to be life long learners.
I graduated from Villa Grove, so this community is near and dear to my heart.(GO BLUE DEVILS!) I attended Parkland College and received my Associates Degree of Science and then transferred to Illinois State University. I graduated with honors with a Bachelors Degree in Early Childhood Education and a Special Education Endorsement. I have been teaching First Grade at Villa Grove since 2006. Room 4 is special to me because it was my First Grade classroom and the very room I decided I wanted to be a teacher.
I am married to my best friend and am a busy boy mom to two growing boys. Cole is a Senior in High School and I enjoy attending all of his football games and track meets. He has a big heart and works very hard. Tyler is in Second Grade and he enjoys baseball, soccer, and swimming. He has a BIG personality and imagination! My boys are my world and I am so honored that I get to be their momma. I also have a Yorkshire Terrier named WIcket and he loves going to the dog park and cuddling.
I enjoy spending time with Mr. King on our date nights, my boys, Crossfit, family bike rides, traveling, reading, my girl pals monthly dinner and DIY projects when I have time. We also like to volunteer as advocates for Autism TAP and Central Illinois Autism Network.
