Welcome to Kindergarten!
“Give thanks to the Lord, for He is good. His love endures forever.” – Psalm 136:1
Dear Parents,
I am excited to be joining Centralia Christian School this year as the kindergarten teacher! As an alumna of CCS, it is especially meaningful to return to the school that played such an important role in my own education and faith journey.
I recently graduated from Centralia College with a Bachelor’s Degree in K–8 Education and am passionate about creating a classroom where students feel loved, encouraged, and excited to learn each day.
Our class verse for this school year is Psalm 136:1: "Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever." Together, our daily motto will be: "God is Good, All the Time!" My prayer is that your children will walk into our classroom every morning knowing just how deeply loved they are by God and leaving each afternoon with a heart full of thankfulness.
I look forward to building strong relationships with you and your child and helping them grow academically, socially, and spiritually this school year.
With joy and gratitude,
Mrs. Myah Parriott
Kindergarten Teacher
