Welcome

Hello! My name is Ms. Blanchard and I am thrilled to be your child’s 1st grade teacher for the 2022/2023 school year. It is my hope that the resources provided here will support and have an impact on your children in their learning this school year.

I am a sixth year teacher at Hamilton Elementary. This will be my first year as a 1st grade teacher, and I am excited about beginning this new year. I graduated from Southeast Missouri State University with a degree in Early Childhood Education. I grew up with a big family; eight siblings. I now have a two-year-old daughter of my own. My hope this school year is to have a positive impact on your children by supporting their interest in what they love and creating a bond that they will never forget.
