Welcome to First Grade!

Hello, my name is Mrs. Shepherd.  This is my third year teaching in this district.  I am so excited to be teaching here in Rainier!  I have been a long time member of this community.  I attended Rainier all the way from Kindergarten through my Senior Year!  This community means a lot to me and I feel so grateful to be giving back to the children in it.  

I am married to my high school sweetheart and we have three children who have all attended Rainier as well. We have two dogs, four cats, and four chickens! I have a small farm and love to garden outdoors and indoors as well.  I also love to bake and cook, read, paint, and hang out with my family.

This year we will learn a lot together!  If you have any questions, please feel free to reach out!  My email is shepherdr@rainier.wednet.edu
