My name is Sarah Cherveny and I am so happy to be your child's kindergarten teacher this year in Room 107!  I am looking forward to getting to know your child as we learn something new each and every day.  I love teaching kindergarten and I know that this will be a fantastic school year!

A little about me...  

I live in Southwest Minneapolis with my husband, Aaron, and my two boys Finn and Will.   When I am not teaching, I enjoy spending

time with family and friends, reading, spending time outside and traveling.  I especially love our annual road trips.  Our adventure this year took us to Park City, Utah.  We had fun cross-country mountain biking!  I also enjoy walking and snuggling with my dog, Auggie.  

I earned both my Bachelor of Science and Master of Education degrees in Elementary Education from the University of Minnesota - Twin Cities. I began my career student teaching here at Dowling in 2000.

 Since that time, I taught grades 2 and 5 before finding my way back to Dowling as a Kindergarten teacher in 2015.  I have fallen in love with kindergarteners and enjoy the enthusiasm they bring each and every day.  

The best way to get in touch with me is through email.  If you have any questions, my email address is sarah.cherveny@mpls.k12.mn.us.

I am looking forward to a great year!
