Welcome to 4th grade!  I'm Mrs. Boden, I love West Hanover and I'm excited to be your teacher this year.  I am ready to explore together as we dive into a new school year. 

Outside of the classroom, I love performing in shows, singing, taking pictures and scrapbooking my memories, traveling, cooking, trying new food, and adventuring.  

My only pet is a turtle named Baxter.  He is 17 years old and loves to be around people.  Baxter loves to eat strawberries and carrots.  He also likes to watch TV, but hates to get a bath.  That is when he gets very grumpy! 

Mr. Boden and I are also parents to our two sweet kiddos, Iris and Elliott!  Iris loves to read, bake, dance, sing, and make crafts.  Elliott is still pretty young, but he loves to smile, laugh, and put things in his mouth!  

If you have any questions about our classroom or anything else, please let me know!  Email is the best way to reach me.  I check my email at least once a day and will reply to all messages within 24 hours during the school week.  I am looking forward to a wonderful year!
