My name is Shannon Cunningham and I am a teacher at Black Diamond Elementary. Over the last 14 years, I've taught grades 3-6. This year, I am teaching a 3rd/4th-grade combination class. I have a business degree from the University of Washington and a Masters degree in Elementary Education from Eastern Washington University. I have been married for 25 years and have 2 daughters, both are attending Washington State University. My husband and I recently moved to a mountain cabin in Greenwater, Wa...population 67 people! In my spare time, I like to read, travel and cook.
I love being a teacher and am passionate about teaching kids to become independent learners who are confident and believe in themselves. I also want them to learn that failure is a good thing and it's important to persevere in order to reach our goals. I am consistently looking for ways to make learning exciting and accessible to all students. I often try new things...sometimes they work and sometimes they don't, but I keep working at it!
I love your energy and passion around teaching! Glad I get to continue to work with you this year!
