Dear Families,

 

Hello! My name is Jillian Hughes, and I am so happy to welcome your child to my first grade class! I’d love to start by telling you a little about myself. I moved to Texas from Tennessee in 2019. This is my second year at Bhuchar Elementary and my 16th year of teaching. Over the years, I’ve taught Pre-K, first, and second grade. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education from Tennessee Technological University in 2006.

 

Outside of school, I’m a proud mom to my 14-year-old son, Parker, who will be in 8th grade this year. I also have three lovable dogs who keep our home busy and full of energy! In my free time, I enjoy traveling, reading, spending time with loved ones, and cheering on the Texans and Astros.

 

I truly love teaching, and I’m excited about the year ahead with your child. First grade is such an important time—it’s a year full of new independence, exciting growth, and increasing confidence. Your child will become a reader, a writer, a problem-solver, and a curious investigator of science and social studies.

 

My goal is to create a supportive and engaging classroom where your child feels safe, valued, and motivated to learn. I look forward to partnering with you to make this a wonderful and successful year for your student. Let’s go, Bengals!

 

Warmly,
Ms. Jillian Hughes
