Welcome students and parents to second grade at Beatty Elementary School. My name is Mrs. Lisa Anderson and I am excited to be your child's teacher this year in 2nd grade! I am anticipating an enjoyable and fun-filled year with your child in 2nd grade. In order to provide the most effective and educational program for your child, we need to work together. When we work together, your child will have a productive and successful year in second grade! I look forward to following the road of learning with your child.
Philosophy: My philosophy is that a child’s early formative years are spent in elementary school. Here, habits of learning are developed, attitudes toward school are formed, and a basic foundation of skills is acquired. 2nd grade is a time to fine tune all areas through increased independence and responsibility as students prepare for 3rd grade and upper elementary grades. Working in harmony with the home, I will do everything possible to help your child achieve to the best of his/her ability.
About Me:I have been a teacher for the past 28 years since Aug. 1992. Beatty is the only school in CCSD that I have had the pleasure of teaching kids, and I enjoy being here! I have taught grades 1,2,4 and 5, but I have an affinity for my sweet 2nd graders! I am originally from San Diego, California and have lived in Las Vegas since 1992. My husband's name is Corey and I have a daughter, Emily, who is a senior at Portland State University in Portland, Oregon. My mom, Susan, is retired and spends several days a week helping in the classroom. So when your child comes home and talks about "Miss Susan" you will know who this special person is! I love teaching young minds that are excited about learning! Outside of school I enjoy traveling, listening to music, shopping, researching my ancestry, and hanging out with friends and family! I am passionate about learning and hope to facilitate and encourage that same excitement for education, creativity, and personal growth with all my students.
