My name is Kirby Jan. My students call me Ms. Kirby.  This is my 11^th year teaching all of which have been here at Pecan Grove Elementarty. Previously, I  taught 6 years of PPCD with 3-5 year olds, 3 years I was a resource teacher working with 2nd and 3rd graders. I enjoyed my time in Resource, but was ready to get back into a self-contained classroom. Last year I taught ABC and covered the SAILS class while the teacher was out. This year I will be teaching SAILS.  I am super excited. I grew up not too far from here in the little town of Needville. I attended Texas State University where I was the Feature twirler (Eat ‘em up cats)!  I graduated in 2013 with a Bachelor’s Degree in Special Education.  I have worked with children with many different abilities and disabilities, each one teaches me something new. I LOVE all of my students like they are my own children. There is no better feeling than seeing one of my students achieving something new.
