Teacher Spotlight of the Week-Mrs. Heaton, First Grade
I was born and raised in Gilbert, Arizona and am the oldest of four children. I graduated from BYU with my Bachelor's degree in Early Childhood Education. I love teaching young children because they are so curious and excited about learning. I especially love teaching my sweet 1st graders how to read because it opens so many doors. In my free time, I love hiking, going to the gym, reading, playing games with my family, and spending time with my husband. I am so grateful to teach at Spanish Oaks!
And we are so grateful to have her here!!

Veterans Visit Spanish Oaks
During our Veterans' Assembly on Friday, as I watched the Veterans stand, saluting the flag, with a look of love and respect on each of their faces, I realized how blessed we are to have individuals that are willing to risk their lives, mentally and physically, for the freedoms we take for granted. I also realized that it is up to us to make sure that the next generation has that same love and respect for our flag and for our free country. They must be taught about respect, gratitude and sacrifice in order for them to be able to have these same characteristics in their hearts as
