Hello! My name is Erin Sandler and I am so excited to be teaching the 6th grade class at Scottsdale Country Day School!
I grew up in southern Idaho with five sisters and three brothers! After high school, I moved to New Jersey and attended William Paterson University, where I earned my bachelor's degree in Psychology. My husband and I decided to move west to be closer to family, and ended up settling in Arizona. We have two children, Lindsey (21) and Austin (17).
In 2009, I started my teacher education at Rio Salado College in Tempe, AZ. I earned my teaching certification and endorsement in Structured English Immersion in June 2011. In June 2017, I earned my middle grades English Language Arts certification. I joined Scottsdale Country Day School in 2012 and have been here since!
I believe that every child deserves to learn in an environment that is safe, respectful, supportive, and fun. My goal as a teacher to is create that environment in my classroom and help each and every student reach their full potential. Every child learns differently, and it is my job as a teacher to adapt my lessons to the different learning styles of my students. I want my students to become responsible, accountable, and caring people.
Other things about me: I love hiking, traveling, shopping, baking, crafting, reading, treasure hunting in thrift stores, and spending time with my family. I look forward to another great year at Scottsdale Country Day School!
