OK...My favorite movie is The Wizard of Oz. I promise that I am not a witch!
Hello Little Flower Families,
A little note about myself--I have taught at LFS since 1992! Wow, I am so blessed to say that I have been a part of LFS for that long! I received my degree at California State University, Northridge in 1991 and then made the move to Reno. I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here. Since being at LFS, I have taught 4th and 5th grades. I moved to Middle School in 2018 and I am enjoying the change.
My husband, two kids, and I enjoy musical theater. Our favorite family past time is to see as many musicals as we can whether it is here at the Pioneer Center, in San Francisco, in Hollywood, or in the Big Apple! We also enjoy going to Disneyland, but who doesn't?
I also LOVE performing in local community theater and dancing!
I am here to help your child reach their full potential in and out of the classroom!
Here's to a good year!
Mrs. Nielson
