Congratulations to our December employee of the month, Elizabeth Skenzick!!    

Mrs. Skenzick has worked for the Fern Ridge School District since August of 2017 and is a first grade teacher at Elmira Elementary School.

She and her husband Nick have two children, Logan and London.  Logan is a 5th grader and London is a 3rd grader and both get to attend the same school where mom works!

In addition to teaching, Mrs. Skenzick demonstrates her leadership both outside of the classroom by her involvement in many school committees including; Math, Every Student Succeeds, Wellness, and Art.  She also serves as the Communication Liaison with OMBI for the Fern Ridge School District Staff Mindfulness Program.

When asked what her favorite thing about her job is, she had several answers:

  • Fern Ridge’s sense of community and the feeling that we all support each other at the school and district level.
  • Being part of an awesome 1st grade EES/VES team.
  • Having a supportive and positive principal.
  • Giving students the tools to track their own goals and progress, so that they feel excited to learn and proud of their growth.
  • I love my students, and I miss them when they move on to the next grade!

In her spare time, she enjoys creating content for Teachers Pay Teachers (why are we NOT surprised!), writing, reading, gardening, playing games with her kiddos, paleo baking and cooking.

Thank you Mrs. Skenzick for your leadership in the classroom and for all of the ways you make Fern Ridge School District a great place for staff, students, and parents!
