Welcome to our first grade class! We are going to have a wonderful year full of learning and fun.   

Here are a few fun facts about me:

 -  This is my 4th year at Christine Donnell teaching first grade.  Before coming to CDSA, I taught at Eagle Elementary for 7 years teaching 2nd and 3rd grades.

-  I love teaching first grade because the students grow, change, and learn so much this year.  I am excited to create a fun and engaging classroom where children can bloom.  Each student will be pushed and challenged to achieve their very best work.
