Hi! I am Mrs. Falkenhagen, and this will be my 5th year teaching. I graduated from the University of Houston-Downtown with a Bachelor's degree in Interdisciplinary Studies. I was honored as the District Rookie Teacher of the Year in 2015. Being a teacher is the fulfillment of my childhood dream and gives me the chance to aid and help develop young minds. I especially enjoy learning about the areas where children need help and finding unique ways to motivate and guide them to be successful. My goal is to support students as they learn and progress. I am happily married with three children, and I have two playful dogs. I enjoy gardening, fishing, singing, cooking, and spending time with my family. :)
