Hello My Name Is...
Happi Montgomery
My name is Happi Montgomery, and I am your child’s 2nd Grade Teacher for this school year. I want to extend to you and your child my warmest welcome into my classroom. This is my 1st year at North Douglas Elementary. I have 19 years of experience as an elementary, middle, and international teacher. I am very excited about working with your child this year!
My philosophy for learning is that each child is unique, and each child learns differently. As a teacher, it is my job to help your child discover his or her individuality and work alongside them to maximize it. I believe in hands-on experiences, learning creatively, and learning through play. It is my goal to create a community of learners who are committed to working hard and having fun. I want students to leave my classroom feeling confident that they can apply what they’ve learned in school to real-life situations. I want my students to feel challenged and to have and enhanced passion for learning.
As parents and guardians, I understand that you are the most influential teacher in your child’s life and it is with that understanding that I appreciate the role that you and I each play in the partnership with your child, achieving the goals set forth for him or her. Collaboration, cooperation, and open communication between home and school are the keys to building a strong foundation for a successful school year. Please feel free to contact me at any time. I can be reached through the main office (770-651-4800) or via e-mail ([email protected]). If you would like to talk in person, I am always available to schedule appointments before and after school.
