Meet the Teacher
Ms. Gartrell has been teaching Kindergarten for the past 7 years (this is her 3rd year teaching K at Parkcrest) and has experience teaching Gr. 1, 4 and 6. Ms. Gartrell loves working with Kindergarten children because they are such enthusiastic and excited learners. It is a privilege to witness and be a little part of how each child grows and develops every day. Ms. Gartrell completed her Bachelors of Education from the University of Victoria as well as her Early Childhood Education Diploma from the University of British Columbia.
She is passionate about teaching through Fine Arts and also teachs dance to teens outside of school. In addition to dance and teaching, Ms. Gartrell loves yoga, knitting, making cards, and spending time with her family and many pets (3 cats and a dog!). Ms. Gartrell was born and raised on an apple orchard in the Okanagan and LOVES fruit! She moved to Kamloops in 2009.
You can contact Ms. Gartrell by phoning the school at 250- 554-2368 or writing her a note in your child's Back and Forth folder.
