Hello, my name is Erin Davis. I have been teaching for 8 years and this is 3^rd year teaching in Des Moines. I grew up in northwest Iowa and graduated from Iowa State University with endorsements in reading and math in 2015. I have taught 2^nd and 4^th grade in the past and am excited to be teaching 5^th grade. In the classroom I think it is crucial that students and teachers are able to work together to build a community where everyone will succeed!
