Dear Sierra Vista Families,

Welcome! I am so excited to be teaching Kindergarten at Sierra Vista for my third year. I have been teaching for a total of 17 years. I taught in Oakland for 7 years and 10 years in Vacaville. I am so proud to be a Vacaville educator because I attended Vacaville Unified myself! I attended Sierra Vista for elementary, Vaca Pena for middle school and Will C. Wood for high school! I attended UC Santa Barbara for my Bachelor’s degree where I majored in psychology and minored in education. I also received my Masters in Education from UC Davis. I have a wonderful husband of 11 years and we have two amazing children that both attend Sierra Vista as well! Brody is in 5th grade and Charlotte is in 3rd grade. As a family, we love camping, traveling and our sweet black lab named Bear.

I am passionate about all things learning! I love planning lessons that are engaging and interactive for my students. I hold high expectations for my class while also making learning fun! I believe that families play a pivotal role in their child’s academic success and when we work together as a team, students are able to reach their full potential. My class truly become a class family through morning meetings, social emotional learning and a positive and inclusive classroom community.

I can’t wait to meet all of my Kindergarteners and watch you learn and grow! Get ready for a memorable and fun year!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Sparks
