About Ms. Schmidt...
Teaching is something I know I was meant to do. I can't imagine having another job, and feel fortunate to have a job that I am so passionate about. My goal is to meet each child where they are at, and find a way to move them forward from there. I strive to provide my class with curiosity, motivation, and responsibility for themselves.
I am originally from Kansas City, but moved into the West Des Moines school district coming into fourth grade. I graduated from Valley, and from there went on to Clarke University (formerly Clarke College). After college I spent a number of years living in other states, and traveling, while substitute teaching. I started my career at Western Hills as the Spanish teacher, but then moved to second grade after just a year. I am excited to be starting my 4th year in second grade, going into the 2015-2016 school year!
