Summary

Kristen Dawson has been teaching for 8 years, but this year is her FIRST teaching fourth grade at Hendry Park Elementary in Angola Indiana. This year has been one of big changes for Kristen: she and her husband picked up their lives and moved schools to be closer to her father-in-law who is suffering with Parkinsons. She's in her second year working in a low income area, and the kids she teaches have captured her heart. She strives to make the classroom a place where her students feel safe, loved, and comfortable. Can you help her? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
