After many years of teaching second grade, she looped with her students to third grade this year, taking on the new challenge with grace and determination.

Known as the "Pick-Up Duty Queen," Mrs. Hubbard expertly manages the car line, keeping things moving smoothly by recognizing cars and ensuring an efficient process. She’s always willing to lend a hand, not just to her own class but to the entire third-grade team and Hulet family. Mrs. Hubbard creates homework aligned with standards and consistently shares helpful resources for Reading and Math with her team. Her commitment to data-driven teaching helps connect her lessons to the standards in a meaningful way. With over 20 years of teaching experience, and 18 years as a proud Roadrunner, Mrs. Hubbard truly embodies being "all in." She’s taken on the transition to a new grade level like a champ, creating new lessons, studying the standards, and dedicating extra hours to ensure her students’ success.
