MRS. MUSSELMAN'S FOURTH GRADE

Hello!  My name is Meredith Musselman and I will be your child's teacher for this year.  I received my Bachelor's Degree from Shippensburg University and a Master's Degree from Wilkes University.   I live in Newville with my three children; two daughters Kenzie and Keeley, and one son, Kade. I started teaching at Grandview Elementary School in 2007.  Prior to this, I was a fifth grade teacher in the Okaloosa County School District in Florida.  I was also a third grade reading co-teacher in the Shippensburg Area School District.

I am very excited about this year!  I believe that all students are unique individuals that need a secure and caring atmosphere to grow.  My desire is to help your child meet their fullest potentials while instilling a love for learning, as I share my own passion with them.  Remember, the teacher's goal is simple...to help the children achieve theirs!

This year Mrs. Pennington and I are team teaching.  I will teach math, science, social studies.  Mrs. Pennington will teach ELA to all fourth grade students, so I will be with your child for half of the day and Mrs. Pennington will be with them the other half.
