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. This summer my family got a new puppy named 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.
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!

Formal homework in kindergarten is optional, but I encourage you to read with your child every day!
We spend time learning outdoors on Fridays from 11:45 - 1:00. We try to get outside as often as we can, but this time is reserved for environmental learning. Please feel free to join us at this time! The more the merrier!
Your child will have specialist time each day. Specialists are on a 6 day rotation: Gym, Media, Music, Gym, Art and Environmental Education. I have attached the 2019-2020 specialist rotation calendar for your reference. I will send a monthly calendar as well. Please send your child in gym shoes for Gym and Environmental Education days.
