My name Is LaShonda Whitmore and I will be your child’s teacher this year.  This is my 19^th year as an educator and my 1^st year in Fort Bend at Ridgegate. A Little about me I grew up in Houston as the oldest with 2 younger brothers. I am a wife and mother of three.  

This is my 19th year as an educator and my second year working in special education and I am very aware of the impact positive interaction have on students.  I am a huge supporter of parent teacher communication so I will use class dojo for communication as well as make my cell phone number available for urgent communication. 

Because I am new to this setting, I will continue to educate myself in best practices so I will attend professional development as it pertains to student success.  My goal is to give my students to best foundation possible while growing them socially, emotionally and academically.
