Hello!

Mrs. Stephanie Bondi-Smith is so elated to be your child's Pre-School teacher this year! She is a wife of 17 years to her husband, Michael. She has been a foster mom for 6 years and has had numerous children in her home and has been blessed with the opportunity to be the adoptive momma to two sweet boys Gabriel, who is 6, and Logan, who is 5. Gabriel entered Kindergarten and Logan entered Pre-K this school year. 

She is a graduate of Purdue University with her Bachelor's in Elementary Education in 2009. And most recently, she will hold a Master's degree in special education from Purdue University in the fall. She is overjoyed to want to continue her education into a doctorate program in the next 5 years, 

She has been teaching for 13 years, primarily in the Kindergarten-5th grade setting, so she is super excited to continue her growth as an educator with your student.

 

Happy Learning!
