=Welcome To Ms. Ericka's Kindergarten Class! =

Bienvenue L'Ecole La Petite Sirène!! Welcome to the school of The Little Mermaid! We are an all girl primary school located in Port-Au-Prince, Haiti. I am Ericka Francois and I will be teaching your child this school year. Here's a little about myself:

I was born and raised in Miami, Florida by two loving Haitian parents. I speak three languages: English, Haitian Creole, and French. I obtained my B.S. degree in Early Childhood Education with a Minor in Reading and Leadership Studies from the University of Central Florida. Immediately after college, I pursued my dream to teach abroad and that is why I am employed here in Haiti. In my classroom, your child will be taught in English, but will be spoken to in French as well to ease her transition.

When I am not teaching I indulge in collecting Disney Princess items and love working on my first children's book. I enjoy to read and write and I will be helping your child discover what she loves to do as well with the various activities I have planned for the year, which are listed weekly in the calendar.

I love for the parent's to be involved in the child's education so any time you feel the need, you can drop in the classroom and see how we're doing. I am here to promote literacy in young girls as well as bringing out their creativity. As a parent, you can use my resources to help your child when they are not in my classroom.

I prefer to be addressed as Ms. Ericka by my students, but as the parents you may call me Ms. Francois. Should you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to email me at: erickafrancois@lps.edu or call me at 509-555-2321. I look forward to an extraordinary year with your daughters!

Merci/Thank You

Here is just a small clip of the mini adventures I had as a young adult in high school. Enjoy!
