About Mrs. Schuler
Hi! Welcome to Centennial Academy.
I have been teaching at Centennial for the past eleven years. I have taught kindergarten, first grade, second grade, and a second/third combined class and fifth grade. I was also a paraprofessional in special education at the middle school level for six years. I received my B.S. degree from Minnesota State University and my M.A. degree from Grand Canyon University. I am married and have two grown children. In my free time I enjoy reading, traveling, hiking, and living in Colorado.
I chose teaching as my profession because I enjoy helping and working with children. I hope to make this year a positive and memorable one for each student. As a classroom teacher, my mission is to provide a kind and caring atmosphere where I can help your child reach their fullest potential. I want all my students to feel good about themselves, and instill in them, a life-long love of learning.
