Hello and welcome to my fourth graders and families! I can't wait to kick off this school year with you!

I am your teacher and coach Mrs. Manfre.

I am so excited for this year to begin so that I can get to know each of you! 

This will be my fourth year teaching and I am thrilled to be a part of the KCES family! I graduated from the University of Florida (Go Gators!) with my bachelors degree in elementary education in 2019; and I received my masters degree in special education in 2020.

Shortly after marrying my husband in May of 2020, I left our home state of Florida and joined him here at our home in Houston County. We have six chickens, a dog, and a cat that keep us very busy. We are expecting our first baby in December. Together we like to be outside with the dog, play frisbee in our backyard, fish on our boat or sit on the beach. 

In our classroom it is okay to fail and make mistakes; this is how we become stronger learners. In our classroom, we very quickly become a family that laughs with one each other, succeeds and fails together, and cheers one another on. I want my students to feel confident and loved. Together we will learn what it means to stick together and support our peers. It is my hope that my fourth graders will leave my classroom a stronger learner, community member, and friend.
