Greetings Farnsworth Aerospace PreK-4 Families!

My name is Amanda Erickson and I am excited to partner with students and families.

Education and Teaching

I started teaching in 2007 and I joined Saint Paul Public Schools in 2012. I have experience teaching Kindergarten, First, Second and Inquiry Specialists (K-3 Social Studies and Science).  I received my teaching degree and Masters from the University of Minnesota, Twin Cities.

Home Life

My husband and I have two sons, Emmett and Eli.  As a family we love to be outside, listen to music, read books, walk our dog, Piper and cook dinners together.  We also have a cat named Miles. Our favorite season is Fall because we love the changing colors and cooler weather.

Hopes and Dreams

The relationship between family and school is so important in a child’s education and success.  I want to reach students wholly by supporting them socially and emotionally.  I want students to have fun with learning, navigate and succeed in new challenges and build community in my classroom.  I appreciate any feedback and communication from parents or guardians about how we can provide the best school experience for everyone.  Together we can make a difference.
