Mrs. Spencer
Hi! I am so excited to be a part of the River Dell Family. We have a fun year ahead full of lots of new adventures. This will mark my sixteenth year of teaching. I graduated from the University of North Carolina at Wilmington with a degree in Elementary Education. I believe that every child learns in his/her own way and has the opportunity to experience all of life’s adventures. My goal is to help your child reach his/her full potential and help instill a love for learning.
Welcome to Kindergarten! We are going to have a GREAT year!
