Mrs. Swanson's Super 2nd Grade

My name is Jen Swanson and this is my fourth year teaching second grade at 
Lakeland Hills Elementary.  Previously, I taught first grade at Hazelwood 
Elementary in Auburn for 7 years.  I love teaching second grade and I feel 
so lucky to work here at Lakeland! Besides, teaching and being busy with my 
family, I love scrapbooking, hiking, and shopping

I live with my husband, Troy and my two children, Aaron and Sarah in Bonney 
Lake. Aaron is a second grader and Sarah is in kindergarten. Our family is 
completed by our 102 pound black lab, Guinness.

Education is not the filling of a pail, but the lighting of a fire.
                           -William Butler Yeats

     Life has no limitations, except the ones you make.
                           - Les Brown

My mission is to provide a safe, positive learning environment, that is 
academically challenging, engaging, and promotes social growth and personal 
responsibility. My goal is for every child to reach their full potential.
