Howdy! My name is Mrs. Newton and I am so excited to be the Enrichment Specialist at Creek View Elementary! I am beginning my 14th year in education this year and during that time, I've taught Kindergarten, Second Grade, and GT/Enrichment! I am excited for the adventures that wait for us in Gator GT & Enrichment this year!
I am married to my super husband, Josh (we just celebrated our 12th anniversary), and we have two hilarious boys, Cameron (age 10) and Cade (age 7). Cameron is enjoying his time this year in 4th grade and Cade is already loving his time in 2nd grade. They love being Creek View Gators as much as I do! I can't wait to share some of their stories with you in our class this year!
I love all things that have to do with chocolate, peanut butter (yes, Reese's Peanut Butter Cups are my favorite) and caffeine. I enjoy starting my day with a big cup of coffee and many times, you will see me carrying my coffee cup in the hallway. The baristas at Starbucks know my order by heart. After my coffee each morning, I love to drink ICE COLD water all throughout the day! Even when I go to Sonic, I order a water (with extra ice!). I love to play ninjas and superheros. What can I say? I live in a house of boys! My family has recently found a love for Pokemon Go and if you see me driving around town, chances are I am taking my boys to the nearest Pokestop or Gym! We are on the hunt for a Pikachu! Throughout the week, you will find me cheering for my boys on the football field or the basketball court. My boys and husband love sports and I think our TV only has one channel-ESPN! But sometimes, I like to slip away from all of the boys in my house and go shopping! Target, Ann Taylor Loft, and The Gap get a lot of my money!
I have a passion for technology and truly enjoy sharing the amazing world of technology with my students and staff! Make sure you ask your child the latest tech tool I have shared with them. (I promise they might teach YOU something new!) Teaching my Gifted & Enrichment students has given me the opportunity to find a child's true potential like never before! Challenging our Gators through questioning, logic, creativity, research, and reasoning are some of the many reasons I love my job!
I will never forget career day when I was in Kindergarten. I went dressed as a teacher. I knew I would be a teacher my whole life! After graduating from Texas A&M (whoop!), that dream came true! I am so lucky to come to a job that I love each day! I am so excited about this school year!
