About The Teacher

My name is Katie Trahan and I grew up in Port Neches, TX.  I graduated from 
Lamar University with an 
Elementary Education degree in the Spring of 2007.   I began my teaching 
career in First Grade at Goose 
Creek ISD is Baytown, TX.  My first year as a teacher was the most rewarding 
gift I have ever received.  It 
was hard to leave such a great school, but it has always been a goal of mine 
to live in Austin.  After a 
lot of thought and advice from my wonderful family and friends I decided to 
take my chances and 
attend job fairs in the Austin area.  I was blessed to interview with Sommer 
Elementary.  I am very 
excited and grateful to be a teacher in Round Rock ISD.  I look forward to a 
fun filled academic year!








Mission For The Class

First grade is a crucial and exciting time where children will experience new 
adventures in learning.  My 
goal is to instill a love of learning that will last throughout your child's 
years of schooling.  It is 
extremely important to keep in mind that we all build on small successes.  
Each child will achieve at 
his/her own pace.  I want every student in my room to be successful.  I 
believe that this can be 
achieved with a partnership between teachers, parents, and students.
