This week, Freeland Learning Center is highlighting one of our wonderful kindergarten teachers, Mrs. Kendra Hensley. Mrs. Hensley has been teaching at the Freeland Learning Center for the past five years. Mrs. Hensley is a former Freeland Community School District graduate and we are thankful to have her back in the role of a teacher. Mrs. Hensley is a very caring and creative teacher who is always enhancing her students' learning with fun hands-on activities. When asked what she finds most rewarding about her position, Mrs. Hensley said, “I enjoy working with the littlest Falcons and seeing how much they learn and grow academically, socially, and emotionally throughout the course of the year ” She also shared that what she enjoys most about working in the Freeland Community School District is working with a group of dedicated educators who do all they can to help students find success. Mrs. Hensley added that, “As a graduate of Freeland schools, I know firsthand how impactful these individuals are.” She feels very fortunate to be a part of this dedicated team of educators. Thank you Mrs. Hensley for your dedication to the students and families of the Freeland Learning Center and for all you do for the Freeland Community School District.
