Hello there!  My name is Kristen Case, and I am eager to teach your child this year!  Preschool is a fun time to learn and grow.  I hope to instill in your child a love of learning and excitement to try new things and meet new friends. 

A little about me:

I was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, more specifically, West Park.  I attended Saint Joseph Academy for high school.  I completed my Bachelor's in early childhood education and early childhood intervention at Ashland University in 2007.  At that point, I was invited by my brother to visit him in Arizona, where he was stationed with the Air Force.  I visited Arizona, loved Arizona, and moved there.  I went on to teach in an integrated preschool classroom in Surprise, Arizona with the Dysart Unified School District from 2007-2011.  I then moved back to Ohio and taught in Avon, Ohio at the Avon Early Learning Center, also teaching in an integrated preschool classroom from 2011-2016.  In May of 2015, I completed my Masters in Curriculum & Instruction-Educational Technology at Cleveland State University.  I began teaching in Hudson in 2017 as an itinerant intervention specialist and in an integrated preschool classroom.  This is now my 13th year of teaching and this year, I will be teaching an AM and a PM integrated preschool classroom!  I love to learn and grow as an educator.  

I enjoy bicycling, spending time with my family, hiking, doing puzzles, reading, traveling when I have time, and playing with my Chihuahua, Gus Gus and my Puggle, Abby.  I also re-started a fun side job as a Mary Kay consultant, just to stay EXTRA busy! :)     

I'm looking forward to learning more about each of my students and their families and I am so happy to be in Hudson! This journey in Hudson has been amazing and has continued to surpass my expectations.  Hudson is a phenomenal district!  

I look forward to learning more about you, your child, and your family throughout this preschool journey!
