My name is Patricia Conlin and I’d like to introduce myself as the new kindergarten teacher at Primrose School of Castle Hills. I am excited to join the talented staff at Primrose and make this a rewarding year for your child!

I earned my B.A. in education and psychology and my M.A. in special education from San Francisco State University. In addition, I have teaching credentials in both general and bilingual education. Throughout my career, I have taught in a wide variety of classrooms, including general education, deaf education, and bilingual settings. I have worked with a variety of ages from infancy to fifth grade. My years of experience have equipped me with the ability to adapt the curriculum to meet the unique educational needs of each student.

My personal teaching philosophy aligns closely with Primrose’s commitment to the development of the whole child -- as stated in their belief that “who children become is as important as what they know”. It is important to recognize the value of social and emotional development as well as academic growth and provide classroom opportunities for their development. Curiosity, perseverance and relationship skills are as critical to our success as our academic competence.

I love teaching children in the early years of their education and being a guide on their journey of discoveries. It is amazing to watch a child as he or she slowly begins to recognize how many ways we use numbers in our lives, to help them make connections to storybook characters or share their observations of nature. It is satisfying to see children progress from writing their names to writing about their experiences. And after thirty years of teaching, the magic of hearing a child read his or her first book remains uniquely special.

I believe you are an invaluable part of your child’s learning. Keeping a flow of positive and productive communication between us will assist me in creating a happy and successful Kindergarten year for your child.

I look forward to meeting you and your child in the coming weeks! Please feel free to come up and introduce yourself. You may schedule a time to meet with me before or after class and you may also reach me via Primrose email.
