Teacher Spotlight - Ms. Taylor Jansen

Nurturing dreams and showing students what is possible is Ms. Taylor Jansen.  She celebrates her birthday on May 14th.  Her family consists of her father and mother, Roger and Roxanne Jansen, sister and brother-in-law, Allison and Cameron Breen and brother and sister-in-law, Austin and Haylee Jansen.  They also have two cats to round out their family.

She received her teaching degree at the University of South Dakota, GO COYOTES!  She is in her 3rd year of teaching.  She teaches Math and ELA to the 4th and 5th grade students.  She believes her students would be amazed to find out that she has never been out of the country or seen an ocean!

Her favorite thing to do for excitement is to hand out with friends!

Some of her favorites are:

  • The color green.
  • Food is tacos.
  • Book is "The Great Gatsby."
  • Movie is "The Rocky" movies.
  • Song is "Eye of the Tiger."
  • Sport is football.
  • Sports team is the Oklahoma Sooners.

Her greatest thing about teaching is that aha moment, when students finally understand the concept.

Ms. Jansen, thank you for all that you do!
