All About Mrs. Quitno

Hello Families!

I'm so pleased to be starting my 18th year teaching at James Giles School.  I have had the pleasure to teach a variety of grade levels, and even taught a first-second grade split class four years ago.  However, I absolutely love teaching at the second grade level...these kids love to learn! I would like to share a bit about me.

I am married to my golf course architect husband, and together we have three children: Finn, Carsen, and Millie.  Finn and Carsen are in fourth and SECOND grade, and Millie is a Pre-K student in Park Ridge.  They keep us very active between soccer, basketball, baseball, and dance.  As a family we love to golf (both mini and Par-3 courses), play family soccer games, and watch movies.

When I have free time, I love to read.  It can be a great historical fiction book or even a celebrity magazine...I just love to read and it is a great way to relax.  I am also an avid runner...I run with a group of friends (and a dog) at 5 am three mornings a week.  Before I was married, I ran a marathon...I do not have a goal to do that again, but will run a half before the school year ends.  I also love to dance, and have found a perfect outlet for that passion through Zumba.  Nothing is more fun to me than being able to dance to great music...and my children often giggle at my "moves".

I am so excited to learn more about all of you!
