I am very happy to be your child's teacher this year! We are going to have an awesome school year as we learn and have fun doing it!
Our Meet and greet will be on Friday from 5:00 pm to 6:30 (come and go), PTO will be set up to order spirit wear and for volunteer opportunities.
For new to BWE families we will have a BWE 101-new family orientation at 4:00 PM.
Meet and greet is a great time to drop off school supplies so that will help our first day run smoother.
Before we meet in person, I want to introduce myself to my students and parents.
My name is Johanna Castillo and I am a kindergarten teacher at Birnham Woods Elementary. My classroom has a special name and I have named it "The Shining Stars" because all of my students will shine and excel to the best of their abilities in my class.
I have been teaching for almost twelve years in prekindergarten and kindergarten classrooms, and this will be my sixth year teaching in Conroe ISD. I am married to a wonderful husband and have three beautiful daughters.We enjoy traveling around the world, serving others in our church and community, and spending time as a family.

I studied Early Childhood Education in the University of Anchorage, in Alaska, where my first daughter was born. I was also a preschool teacher and an Assistant Director at a private school in Anchorage. Although the people were friendly and unique, Alaska's climate was not what I was used to in tropical Honduras!
I moved to Texas and graduated from Sam Houston State University.I have been a preschool and kinder teacher in Texas and am enjoying every minute of it. Birnham Woods Elementary is a wonderful school where I am privileged to be a teacher in, a place where I can bring my own children and know that they will have a superb education. Texas has been very good to me!
I came to Texas as fast as I could! Can you tell that I love Texas!
