Glendale Acres Teacher of the Year -Mrs. Ferguson

About Mrs. Ferguson,

Torria Ferguson

 I am a mother of five boys, a wife, a daughter, a sister, and an aunt. I cherish spending time with my family, learning new things, and exploring my creative side through arts and crafts. 

 As a dedicated first-grade teacher with a decade of experience, I am passionate about fostering a love for learning among young students. I hold a Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education and a Master's degree in Curriculum and Instruction, which provide me with the knowledge and skills to create engaging and effective learning experiences. 

 I believe every child has unique abilities, and I strive to cultivate an inclusive classroom environment where all students feel valued and empowered. Collaboration with colleagues is essential, as I enjoy sharing ideas and strategies to enhance our teaching practices. 

Additionally, I prioritize engaging parents in the educational process, recognizing their vital role in their children's success. I am committed to making a positive impact in the lives of my students and look forward to inspiring the next generation of learners.
