Hello Bullfrogs!  My name is Christine Nicholie and I teach 2^nd grade reading, writing, and social studies.  I am proud to say this is my 21^st year of teaching!  Throughout my career I have had the opportunity to teach first, second, third and sixth grade.  I was born and raised in Michigan and graduated from Central Michigan University with a Bachelor of Science in Education.  In 2000, my family moved to the great state of Texas to work and raise our family.  We now have two adult children, Jacob and Haley, who have both gone through Brazos Bend Elementary (K -5^th grade).  Jacob recently graduated from the University of Houston with a degree in Digital Media and Haley is studying to be a nurse.  We also have a ten year old daughter Marissa who keeps us very busy!

Being an educator is my passion!  I have taught long enough to watch my students grow up, make goals and live out their dreams.  I truly love teaching and strive to make a positive difference in the lives of each child I teach!
