Hi, my name is Debra Groeneveld, and I'm so happy to teach 4th grade here at Cedar Creek Elementary. I have a bachelor's degree in Business Administration from Wilmington College, and I received my teaching certification through Texas State. I am certified to teach Early Childhood through 4th Grade. I am also certified in English as a Second Language and have a Gifted & Talented endorsement. I began my teaching career in 2005 and came to CCE in 2008. I have taught 2nd through 4th grade. This year we will be analyzing reading and writing at a deeper level than previous years, as well as composing narrative and expository writing pieces, and responding to reading to show comprehension at a 4th grade level. Here's what you can expect this year: FUN, FUN AND MORE FUN while learning a TON about reading and writing. If you have a concern about your child's progress, please be in touch. I am excited to teach your child this year and look forward to getting to know your family. The best way to reach me is through my email at dgroeneveld@bisdtx.org or during my conference time (9:15-10:05am) at 512-772-7600, or through School Status.
