About
My name is Kris Larkin. I am one of 4th grade Reading, Writing and Social Studies teachers here at Press. This is my second year in 4th, but I have been at Press for over 5 years now. I have over 16 years of teaching experience in elementary, mostly in Florida. I graduated from Florida State-GO Seminoles !- with a BS in Elementary and Early Childhood Education. I am very excited to join this wonderful team in 4th and help your child be all that they can be! It is going to be a great year in 4th grade!
A little personal info about me- We have lived in Texas for almost 13 years now, after 20 years in FL. I have been married to my wonderful husband for 29 years. :) We have 3 children- Riley, 25, who graduated from U. of ARK 2 years ago and is getting married THIS November! He lives in Fayetteville where his job is, along with his fiancee Kiana. Erin, 21, is a SENIOR (OH MY!) at Ole Miss studying Public Policy/non profit. She loves college and sorority life! Ian, 16, is a junior at McKinney North. He is is in student council and plays on the Varsity lacrosse team. We have 3 dogs- Sophie ,our 13 yr old black lab mutt. Nola. our 4 yr old German Shepherd and Rosemary a chocolate labradoodle, she is 1 year. Between the kids, lacrosse and dogs we are a very busy family! In my down time I love to read (set a yearly goal each and every year!), garden, eat yummy food and travel.
Two summers ago I had the opportunity to meet my daughter, Erin, in Italy! She was finishing a study abroad program there for 4 weeks. We spend 13 days in Florence, Capri and Rome. I had never been abroad and it was everything I had hoped it would be and more! We truly enjoyed the Italian culture, art,landscape and of course the FOOD!
