Rena Morgan
Hello, my name is Rena Morgan. I have been in education over 25 years and have taught everything from Preschool to 6th grade in general education, as well as in a Special Education Co-Taught setting in 3rd and 5th grade. This is my second year at Mountain View Elementary and I feel it is absolutely the best place to teach. I believe the most important aspect of teaching is to create a learning environment where students feel they belong and are loved unconditionally so they can explore and discover through curiosity and creativity. I am very excited about meeting my students and can’t wait to start this year’s journey with them.
