Hi! I'm Mrs. Ferrari!

Welcome to our class page! I am so glad you are a part of our wonderful kindergarten class! Every day is a new experience and a new opportunity to have so much fun learning!

I am so thankful that I have the opportunity to teach and support students every day! I received my bachelor's degree in Liberal Studies, with an emphasis in child development, and my multiple subject credential from California State University San Bernardino. I earned my master's degree in Instructional Technology from Brandman University. I began my teaching career in 2007 teaching third grade. I moved to the Etiwanda School District 10 years ago and I love it! This will be my 18th year teaching. In my experience, I have taught kindergarten, second, third, fourth, and fifth grade with most of my time being spent in kindergarten and third grade. I am excited for another year in kindergarten and know we will all work together to make it a fantastic year!

I live in Fontana with my husband, Mr. Ferrari, our son and daughter, and our crazy pet cat-Roger. We have been married for 9 years. Our daughter was born this past February and our little boy is going to celebrate his third birthday during the second week of school! I love art, math, and reading fun new books! I also enjoy spending time with my big family, crafting, shopping, cheering for the Dodgers, and going to my favorite place- Disneyland!!

You will see me every Monday- Wednesday and every other Thursday! I look forward to all the learning and growing we will do this year! :)

Hi! I'm Mrs. Westphal!

Hello and welcome! My name is Mrs. Katharine Westphal, and I am so excited to be one of your child’s kindergarten teachers this year. I feel truly honored to have the opportunity to work with your wonderful children as they take their first steps on their education journey. Together we will learn, laugh, and grow every single day! I look forward to building a strong partnership with you and your family to support your child’s learning and success. Let’s make this a fantastic year filled with discovery, growth, and joy. You’ll see me here some Thursdays and every Friday.

I have been teaching in the Etiwanda School District since 2014. I was a school librarian in the Alta Loma School District for three years after staying home to raise my three children for many years. I found a love for teaching which led to me obtaining my teaching credential from CSUSB in 2012.

GRADES TAUGHT: Clouds Preschool, 3rd, 4th, 5th, and kindergarten
