About Me
This is my third year as a fourth grade teacher at Goshen
Center School, but I have been working within Region 6
for about seven years. My family lives in Goshen and our
two daughters both a]ended Goshen Center School. My
husband also works at Goshen Center School as the
a^ernoon custodian. My favorite pasCme is being with
friends and family, especially if we are camping or in New
Jersey with my Grandma, who recently turned 100 years
old.
My philosophy as a teacher is to prepare students to become independent, producCve
individuals and to inspire them to embrace a love of learning in all areas. I believe in
the power of posiCvity and that sharing laughter and smiles with students helps them
feel comfortable and open to learning.
I cant wait to hear about all of the amazing books you have been reading this
summer. Dont forget to log all your reading in your Summer Reading Journal for The
Governors Summer Reading Challenge! Again, we are aiming for 100% parCcipaCon,
so be prepared to bring in a list of the books you read on the very rst day of school.
Please bring in your favorite book from your summer reading and mark your mostloved part with a post-it, as well as a picture from a great summer memory. We will
share these in class!
The Ice Cream Social is scheduled for Monday, August 29 at 5:00 pm. I hope to see you
there, but if not, I will see you on the rst day of school on Wednesday, August 31. Be
sure to get a good nights sleep and eat a healthy breakfast. If you or your family
would like to contact me, you can email me at vspino@rsd6.org or through my

Sincerely,
Mrs. Spino
