This is one of our fabulous first grade teachers, Mrs. Hrubes! See a message from her below!
"My name is Kayla Hrubes. This is my 10th year teaching at Starry, but my 12th year in education. I love to spend time with my husband and kids (ages 2 and 5), watch movies, spend time with friends, and travel. I look forward to this school year and getting to work with this great group of first graders!"
During #CKLA skills, first graders used their "readers" to partner read the story "The Man in the Black Hat". #starryinspire #misdinspire
