The Kindergarten class of 2008-09 will be the graduating class of 2021! It's hard to believe isn't it? We will be busy during the 2008-09 school year! We will be learning lots and lots of new things. Kindergarten is SO EXCITING! We learn to read, and to write, but there is so much more! There is spelling, handwriting, math, science, social studies, art, PE and music. There is learning to work together, and learning how to listen to our teacher. School is our new job! And we also look forward to making new friends. Kindergarten is the BEST!

The 2008-09 school year will be her 15th year as a teacher, and her 10th year in DVUSD at Las Brisas. Ms. Fitzgerald LOVES teaching and can't imagine doing anything else! And she thinks Las Brisas just the GREATEST school! Prior to teaching she worked in the medical field, working for a family practitioner for 13 years. She has three grown children. Her oldest son, Chris, is married to Susan and they live in the East Valley. They have one son, Ashton, who is 5 years old and starting Kindergarten this year. She also has a twin son and daughter.

Her daughter, Kim, still enjoys the single life and works and lives in San Diego.
Ms. Fitzgerald has 2 miniature dachshunds. The first is Max and he is going to be 9 years old on Nov. 11. He used to be a Therapy Dog, but he is retired now. The second is Maja(pronounced My-a) and she just turned a year old on June 1. Ms Fitzgerald is a big fan of dachshunds!
Ms. Fitzgerald loves the Diamondbacks(but she wishes they had kept their old colors of purple and teal)! In addition she likes the Phoenix Suns, and the Phoenix Mercury! She also likes swimming, hiking, camping, reading, and a variety of crafts.
