Welcome to First grade!
My name is Liz Thurgood and I teach first grade. I am a Coeur d'Alene native, born and raised. I received my Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education from Brigham Young University and my Master's degree in Integrated Teaching Through the Arts from Lesley University. I have been teaching since 2004. I came to Ramsey in 2008.
I enjoy gardening, running, swimming, singing, reading, baking, canning, and spending time with my husband and four kids (plus two daughters-in-law and my first grandchild!)
I love teaching and watching those light bulb moments of discovery and understanding. I feel it a privledge to be part of your and your children's lives. Together we will make it a great year!
Please call or e-mail me with any concerns or questions.
