About
Rogers...
I am beyond excited to join the KGA team this year! I was born in raised in a small town in the Midwest. My family and I moved to The Valley of the Sun, five years ago. We love to hike, swim and go to the beach as often as we can. Oh, and stay as far away from the cold as possible! I am looking forward to being a part of, what I have been told, is the absolute best school in the state of Arizona! What an honor!
My Education and Professional Background
I received my Bachelor of Science Degree from Indiana University in Elementary Education with a minor in History. After moving to the Southwest, I received my Master's Degree in Educational Leadership from Northern Arizona University. I have experience teaching 5th and 6th grades. I have also served as an EdTech representative, as well as served on multiple leadership and professional development teams. Most recently, I have had the pleasure of serving as a Teacher on Special Assignment, fulfilling administrative duties when called upon.
My Educational Philosophy
My Educational Philosophy is simple: "To teach a student well, you have to know them well". I believe in providing a learning environment that is authentic and unmatched. Building relationships with students, teachers, families and the community will allow us all to come together, achieving the ultimate goal: kids who believe that anything is possible!
