#FCPSTeacherTuesday “I always wanted to be a teacher. I took a break from teaching in my late 20s but returned in my late 30s. I love sharing good books with my students. I have always been inquisitive and enjoy nurturing that in my students. I love kindergarten because my students love to learn and show so much joy.” Suzanne Strait Kindergarten Teacher Shrevewood Elementary School If you'd like to join the #FCPSFam and become a teacher with FCPS, apply now! https://bit.ly/3DtIspG

#FCPSTeacherTuesday “I chose teaching as I had wonderful teachers as examples. I became a military spouse and I was always involved in my children's communities to help out whether it was in the classroom or the library or the lunchroom. I love the energy and the smiles and laughter in school! I chose FCPS as we moved back from Germany and I took a long term sub position. I have completed the Teacher Trainee program and have had such a rewarding experience at Fort Belvoir Primary School!” Blythe Belenky 2nd Grade Teacher Fort Belvoir Elementary School If you'd like to join the #FCPSFam and become a teacher with FCPS, apply now! https://bit.ly/3DtIspG
