Ramsey Magnet School of Science

 

My name is Danielle Kuntz and I am delighted to teach Kindergarten again this year. Although I cry every year when sending my kiddos to 1st grade, it is always so exciting to welcome the new littles.  I was born and raised in Boise, Idaho, but I have lived in Coeur d' Alene for 21 years now. I married my wonderful husband, Mason, in January of 2014, started my career at Ramsey, and bought a new house all in the same year. We have 3 awesome daughters; Berkley (17), Eloise (7), and Ruby (3). Yes....we are a busy family, in the best way imaginable. I hope you and your child enjoyed the summer, and that you are ready to embark on an important milestone in your child's life.

In a Kindergarten classroom, imagination and creativity are everywhere. As you talk with your child about their day and celebrate their best effort in the work they do, remember that Kindergarten is a "child's garden". Many times the process is more important than the product, and learning is accomplished by engaging and experiencing. 

My greatest contribution to education is to teach my students to the best of my ability while being an advocate for their education. I want the parents of my students to feel comfortable communicating with me about any questions or concerns. Your involvement, interest, and enthusiasm will help make this a wonderful year of growth for you and your child.
