Welcome! My name is Mrs. Russ. I have been teaching in the Temecula Valley Unified School District since 2004, 2 years as a 1st grade and K/1 Combo teacher and the remainder as a 2nd grade teacher. I have a Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from the University of Redlands.  I attended University of Califoria-San Marcos to complete the requirements for my Multiple Subject Teaching Credential.  For my Masters Degree in Curriculum & Instruction I went to Concordia University.  My goal is to teach students strategies to use while learning, applying those strategies, and doing their best.
