About Mrs. Rugg Welcome to 5th grade! My name is Amanda Rugg and I am so excited to be joining the fabulous 5th grade team at Goshen Elementary and working with you and your child this school year.
I'm originally from Cincinnati and graduated from Marian College in Indianapolis with a double B.A. degree in Elementary Education and Special Education. I earned my M.A. degree, Curriculum and Instruction with an Autism Focus, from Arizona State University. It's hard for me to believe I'm starting my eleventh year of teaching! Fresh out of college I decided to adventure to Alaska and took a job teaching in a small Yup'ik village, Kongiganak, where I stayed for two years. I next moved to Anchorage, Alaska for seven years and taught in a 2nd-6th grade Structured Learning Classroom followed by a 5th grade classroom! Last summer my family and I moved to Louisville and I started at Goshen as the 3rd-5th grade ECE teacher. I met my husband, Samuel, in his home state of Alaska and we have been married four years. We have two little boys who like to keep us busy, Benjamin (3) and Joshua (1). Our furbabies include a dog (Moose), cat (Sir Reginald) and four chickens. During my free time I love to craft, play games, read, camp, go outside and explore new places! This will be a wonderful school year and I look forward to getting to know you! Please feel free to contact me with any questions, thoughts or concerns. I value communication and truly believe in your involvement in your child's education. |
