The 5th grade team loves being part of Summerwind STEM Academy because we get to work with such a diverse group of students who come to school excited to learn and grow every day.
The very best part of teaching 5th grade? Those moments when a concept clicks and their faces light up with understanding. We also cherish building meaningful relationships with each student and supporting their growth throughout the year.
Outside of school, you’ll find us spending time with family and friends, diving into a good book, or enjoying walks around beautiful Boise. 🌲
Join us on December 9th from 5:30–7:30 PM for a festive night of holiday fun! 🎅🍪
Families can enjoy delicious cookies, snap a photo with Santa, and soak in the magic of the season.
We can’t wait to see you there!

💛 Why do we love Summerwind?
We love the culture of our school. Summerwind is more than a place to work—it’s a family where everyone supports one another. All students are our students.
📚 Best part of working with our students:
Seeing the joy on their faces when something “clicks.” Watching them grow, learn, and build knowledge is truly amazing!
☀️ Outside of school we enjoy:
Spending time outdoors, gardening, reading, traveling, and making memories with family & friends.
We’re so grateful for our incredible Summerwind community!
