Dear Cactus Ranch Family,
Whether you are new to Cactus Ranch, or have been here for a few years,
welcome! I hope your summer has been a pleasant one and that everyone is
ready for a wonderful year of working and learning together. I am excited to
be back for my fourth year at Cactus Ranch and am delighted to be your
child's first grade teacher. Cactus Ranch is such a wonderful place to work
and learn, and I am grateful for the opportunity to spend my days with such a
friendly staff and such amazing families!
My name is Krista Thompson; I was born in Houston and moved to Round Rock
when I was in 5th grade and I am a product of the Round Rock School District.
I then continued on to Texas State University in San Marcos to pursue my
teaching degree. I graduated December 2007 with honors, receiving a bachelor
of science in Elementary Education. I am currently certified to teach early
childhood education through 8th grade. I am very excited for what the year
has in store for us!
I am married to a wonderful PE teacher at Fern Bluff Elementary! We
have two beautiful puppies named Lilly and Bella and they are our pride and
joy.We love playing fetch with them and going for long walks or runs down
the trails by our house. We are expecting our first child, a little boy, on
October 17th and we could not be more excited!
It is very important to me that your child has a positive and enjoyable
learning experience in first grade. It is my goal to create a classroom
community in which every student can succeed and excel. I value your
opinions as a parent, and understand that it is important for us to
communicate and work together to support your child’s growth and learning. I
have had such wonderful experiences working with Cactus Ranch families, and I
know this year will be the same. I am truly looking forward to building a
relationship with you and your child.
We are going to have a great year in first grade!
