Hi Panther families!!  My name is LAURA REYNOLDS. I am a native Californian where I received my bachelors and master’s degrees. I taught in southern California (Huntington Beach…who doesn’t love the beach, right?!) from Kinder age and high school and adult school for over 20 years. I moved to Vegas in 2016 and instantly began teaching midyear here at Pittman.  My passion is with the early age students where I taught 7 years in pre-K and the last 2 years in kinder. This will be my 10th year teaching at Pittman..  I am truly looking forward to this year.                                       We have an awesome Kinder team who love teaching and capturing the hearts and minds of 5 year olds. I am looking forward to meeting you and your student.   When I am not teaching I am at home with my dog. I enjoy walking, reading and watching movies to relax my mind. I live currently with one dog. I travel between Arizona, Tennessee, and Texas to see my four daughters and mom.       Currently, I have 10 grandsons, and hope someday I will get a granddaughter!  I occasionally travel back to southern California to visit friends and soak up the rays!  I love teaching. I love the excitement. I love the aha moment in a child's eyes when they grasp something and love the fact that they are learning. I am looking forward to a wonderful and delightful school year.I truly believe that strong communication between school and home is key to a successful year. I’m always here to support you and your child, so please feel free to reach out via email, ClassDojo, or by sending a note in your child’s folder.
