Welcome to Kindergarten 2013-2014

Hi, my name is Jaime Grimes.  This coming school year will be my third year teaching Kindergarten at Whittier Elementary School.  I was born and raised in Frederick, Maryland.  I went to Hood College and earned a Bachelor's Degree in Early Childhood Education.  I am currently working on my Master's Degree, at Hood College.  I am studying Curriculum and Instruction. I spent a few weeks this summer writing curriculum for early childhood application centers.  I love traveling, running and playing with my little dog, Emma. I am one of six wonderful kindergarten teachers this year.  My teammates are fabulous and any one of us will be more than willing to answer questions and support your student and family in any way!  Whittier is a great community and we are so lucky to have your student  in Kindergarten this year.  Welcome to the 2013-2014 school year. I'm looking forward to another wonderful year at Whittier Elementary!  As the school year progresses, please check out our classroom blog for updates.  Thanks!
