Welcome!

My name is Randi Alvarado and I teach third grade at French Valley Elementary school.  I absolutely love teaching, especially math!  I am passionate about igniting a student's imagination and instilling a love of learning.      

Why do I teach?

*For the "I get it!"

*For the smile after a job well done

*To help shape lives

*To create lifelong learners

I grew up in a family of educators and police officers.  My education was something that was always valued.  I have had many inspirational teachers and professors growing up.  I have seen teachers mold minds of young students and help them to succeed.  My goal for my students each year is to enjoy learning and to meet their full potential.  I am my students' number one fan!  I am a "champion" for my students.  I want my students to feel cared for and as though they are part of a little community.

Rita Pierson's video about educators and relationships has been so inspirational.
