Hello!

My name is Mrs. Jennifer Okenwa (pronounced Oh-Ken-Wuh). I have been teaching for 13 years now. I have spent the majority of my career educating 2nd graders, with a few years in 3rd grade. I loved that experience because it allowed me to see where my 2nd graders need to be in order to be fully prepared for the next grade level.

I was raised in New Mexico but moved to Arizona with my wonderful husband and three kids 7 years ago. As much as I love and miss the city I come from, I love the amount of fun activities to do with my kids here as well as the great food we find when we visit new food spots. I enjoy spending time with my family. Our favorite activities include visiting Escape Rooms together and enjoying family movie nights on Fridays. 

I'm very much a homebody and when I'm not running my kids around to different sports or helping them with homework, I love spending my downtime reading a good book, solving puzzles, watching documentaries, scrapbooking, and occasionally shopping. 

I enjoy fostering a passion for learning so that students can realize how amazing they are and encourage one another to be their best selves.  I look forward to working with you this year to help your child grow both academically and emotionally.

Please feel free to either email me or use Class Dojo to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns :)
