Here's a little something about me:
My name is Mrs. Nina Haskin-Goshay. I am proud to say that I am a product of Prairie Hills School District 144! I lived in the Highlands neighborhood for 21 years. I attended this very school between the grades of third through sixth. I can honestly say I am back at home! It's fulfilling to know that I am giving and pouring back into the students what my teachers once poured into me! I attended Howard University, where I received my Bachelors in Human Development and my Masters in Early Childhood Education. I have been teaching in the Prairie Hills District 144 since 2006. I've taught kindergarten, first, and second grade. I believe that with the experience in all grade levels, I understand what knowledge the students come into the classroom with and what is expected of them to be successful in the next grade.
I also have a passion for the fine arts. I studied music theory and piano for 11 years, and in my spare time I have done stage plays, background singing, and musical outreach programs. So with that experience, I believe it is very important to incorporate music and movement in our learning environment.
I know there have been so many changes but I still expect to have an awesome year!
