My name is Julie Garrett and I am excited to be your child’s Pre-K teacher this year at Colony Bend Elementary! I look forward to getting to know your child and family as well as helping your child learn and grow. I am very passionate about teaching young students. I truly believe a strong foundation sets the stage for future success in school and in life. In our class, we will learn cooperatively through self-directed exploration, play, songs and hands-on activities. I love singing, reciting rhymes, acting out stories and doing crafts to engage my students in meaningful learning.

I am excited about beginning my 5th year serving families in FBISD. I have taught early learners in Texas public schools for 20 years; 10 in Kindergarten and 10 in Pre-K! I earned a degree in Elementary Education from Stephen F. Austin State University, with concentration in Early Childhood Education. I am certified to teach students in Early Childhood through Fourth Grade as well as English as a Second Language, Gifted and Talented and Special Education students.
