Mrs. Kate Hicks
Welcome to 1st grade! I am very excited to be your child's first grade teacher. This will be my 12th year teaching elementary school and my 5th year at Patriots STEM Elementary School. My husband and I have two girls. Ava is in 6th grade and Aubrey is in 4th grade here at Patriots. We also have two dogs. Piper is our 7 year old border collie/lab mix and Fergus is our westie puppy. He is now 8 months old. It can get pretty crazy in our house from time to time. I graduated from UNCC with my masters in elementary education. Teaching is truly a passion of mine and I can't wait to get to know your child and family.
Our classroom is a happy, positive environment where students want to come learn. I strive for us to connect and build relationships that feel more like a family than just a classroom. I can't wait to start this learning adventure with your child and see how much he/she learns this year. Our classroom theme is "Happy Campers" and I look forward to us all learning together real soon!
