Hello and welcome to all!  My name is Nancy Lloyd and I am a third grade teacher at East Elementary.  Some of you might know me from kindergarten, where I spent three wonderful years teaching our kindergarteners.  This is my second year in third grade and I am looking forward to a great year with kids, many of whom I taught in kindergarten!  I am also a Student Leadership Teacher Sponsor for our 3rd, 4th and 5th grade Student Leadership kids.  To tell you a little bit about me, I grew up in the Littleton Public School district.  I attended Peabody Elementary, Newton Middle School and Arapahoe High School.  I then went on to Colorado State University where I received my Bachelor of Science in Human Development and Family Studies with an Early Childhood Education licensure.  I have since gone back to school and obtained my Masters of Arts in Curriculum and Instruction at the University of Phoenix.  I am currently back in school at the University of Phoenix working towards an Administrative Licensure.  As you can probably tell, I am a firm believer in life long learning not only for my students but as well for myself.  I want students to enjoy school and feel confident that they can learn and be successful.  I have many fond memories of elementary school and would like to ensure that all students at East leave us with similar fond memories.
