Welcome to fourth grade ! I am so delighted to be your child’s teacher this year. My name is Cynthia Koranda, and I
couldn’t be more excited and eager to start my ninth year of teaching. The past seven years, I taught 4th grade here at Kerkstra and prior to that I taught 7th and 8th grade Social Science at Hille Middle School. Inspiring and positively influencing children is my passion and I welcome this new year with your child. I am very excited about building our own classroom community. I have your child’s best interest at heart and will be here for you and your child. I truly look forward to getting to know you and your child as we start this new school year. Fourth grade is an important and exciting year. Your child will be learning and growing so much this next year, and I am here to help make this a special year to remember.
I'm happily married and together we have two sons and a daughter . We also have two beautiful granddaughters!
