Welcome
Thank you for visiting our classroom website! My name is Mrs. Kugel and I teach 3rd grade at Fillmore Central Elementary in Geneva, NE. I am currently in my eighth year of teaching, and have loved every part of my educational journey.
I am originally from Colorado, and graduated from Colorado State University in 2010. I have my Bachelor's degree in Human Development and Family Studies, with my emphasis in Early Childhood Education. I have also completed my Master's degree through Doane college in Curriculum & Instruction in December of 2013. In May of 2015, I also completed my Reading Specialist Endorsement through Doane College as well. I am a lifelong learner and enjoy learning new things and using the skills to teach my students.
I currently live in Bruning with my wonderful husband, Damen, our son, Dawson and our little puppy, Holly. We are also looking forward to welcoming a new addition to our family this December! Damen is the preK-12 principal at Bruning-Devenport Schools. Dawson is a sweet and loving little 2 & a half year old, who enjoys learning and growing every day. I've loved having my summer to watch him explore the world. On my free time I enjoy being with my family here in Nebraska, as well as visiting my family in Colorado. I also enjoy reading, netflixing painting mugs, chai lattes, and adult coloring books!
I first came to Nebraska in the Fall of 2010 to work as the Family Educator for the ExCITE program at Lincoln Public Schools. I enjoyed my time in the program and learned so many wonderful skills that I have been able to apply to my teachings. I was blessed with the opportunity to move to a Kindergarten position in the 2nd quarter of my second year of teaching and also loved that experience. I then had the honor to teach Kindergarten at Roper Elementary for 6 years, and I loved my time there. This year, my family has moved to the Bruning/Geneva area for our new adventure, and I am extremely excited for the journey in 3rd grade here! I know it will be a wonderful year.
I hope you find helpful information on my site, and please feel free to contact me if you have any questions. I appreciate you entrusting your child's education to me.
