About Me
Hi! My name is Cristin Young. I am a 2nd grade teacher at East Ward Elementary School in the Downingtown School District. This is my third year teaching at East Ward. Prior to that, I worked at a local charter school at a 2nd/3rd grade looping teacher. I greatly enjoy teaching and have fun doing it! I love to see my students engaged in learning and having fun while in school. I try to motivate my students to work hard, do their best and be positive. In my classroom we have only 3 rules: Be Responsible, Be Resourceful, Be Respectful.
Outside of school, I enjoy traveling, photography and scrapbooking. I enjoy eating out at new restaurants with my husband, however also have a few favorites we return to often. I have two cats, Trinity and Trey, who are partners in crime. I am currently attending graduate school at West Chester University, where I graduated undergrad with a degree in Elementary Education. I am one class away from earning my master's degree in Special Education. I hope to continue on with my secondary education in curriculum design. Maybe one day I will earn my doctorate!
