Hello Falcons,

WELCOME to my ELA Resource class. I am honored to teach your child.

My name is Karin Jackson. I am originally from Germany. German is my first language. I have been in education for about 15 years. I was a teacher in Germany before I moved to Texas.

This is my fourth year in KIRBY Middle school. I am very excited about this school year and all the challenges that come with it.  I teach the ELAR Resource class and I am a Co-teacher for ELAR in the general education classes.  Previously I was a Special Education Teacher in Nuremberg Germany and in Killeen Texas until I made San Antonio my home 😊

My goal is to ensure all students become lifelong learners. I teach reading and writing strategies to assist my students to learn according to their ability.  My classroom is a welcoming, positive, and safe learning environment.  Please feel free to contact me, if you have a question or concern.  The more we communicate, the better we can assist our students to become successful.

THIS IS GOING TO BE A GREAT YEAR. I AM LOOKING FORWARD TO HEARING FROM YOU AND WORKING WITH YOUR CHILD.
