Get To Know Me!
Hello! My name is Miss. Calvert. The 2022-2023 school year will be my third year at Benjamin Franklin. This will be my first year teaching 1st grade. I previously taught 2nd Grade for two years. I grew up and live in Marshall, IL with my mom and three cats: Boo, Meeko, and Jasper. I graduated Indiana State University in 2018 with my Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education. I was also a 4-year member of the Marching Sycamores Color Guard during my time there. Some of my favorite things are coffee, Disney, Marvel, crafting and anything chocolate! I am excited for what the next school year has in store for us all!
