Paige Kinnamon
Fifth Grade

Welcome to Grove Valley 5^th graders!!  My name is Paige Kinnamon and I am so excited to be teaching at Grove Valley this year!  I graduated from the University of Central Oklahoma with a Bachelor of Science in Elementary Education.  After graduating UCO I was a substitute teacher as well as a Reading Sufficiency Tutor for students in the 1^st – 3^rd grade.  I taught 2^nd grade last year at Destiny Christian School and loved every minute!!  Teaching is my passion and this is going to be a great year!

I enjoy spending my free time with my husband Chris and our families.  I have seven nieces and nephews and love spending time playing with them! I do not have any children of my own but I do have three dogs and one foster dog! Daphne is a toy poodle, Macy, Roxy and Diesel are St. Bernards.  I love our dogs!

My fifth grade teacher inspired me and I respect her very much.  My mission this year is to inspire each and every one of my students, helping them to believe in themselves and strive to achieve all they put their minds to.
