Just a little about me...My name is Anna Folmar. I am married to the Love of My Life! My Sweet Husband and I were blessed with 4 Wonderful Children ( all grown). I am a Nonnie ( my favorite status ) to our 5 Sweet~ Grand~Loves... and blessed to have our Daughter and our two oldest Grand~Loves Shanea and Mason living in Wink. Shanea will be a Senior this year and Mason an 8th grader. They both have attended school in Wink since Pre K.. If you were to ask them if they ever wanted to go to another school. Their answer would be... "No Thank You"!!! We are WildCats! Wink is Home!!!
I've had the honor of teaching in Wink for the last 9 years, this will be my 10th year and I love it here! We have an Awesome Principal ( Mrs. Voyles) who is dedicate to the students and the staff. I am a part of an Amazing Group of Teachers and Staff here at Wink Elementary who's goal is instill a love of lifetime learning. We are blessed with a Wonderful Superintendent ( Scotty Carman), who's Moto is ..."We are in it for the Children"! We are also very fortunate to have the Best School Board Members in Texas who are aligned with the WLISD Moto "Committed to Excellence " and they back up the commitment with positive and progressive actions!
One of my favorite philosophies is... " It takes a Village to raise a Child"... We are Blessed with the Best Village here at WLIDS! Stick around... and you will agree!
Welcome to Kindergarten at Wink Elementary... Where... we believe a great education is the foundation for a great futures for our students! Kindergarten is where important milestones take place for a strong academic foundation that leads to "successful readers, strong math skills and great leaders"! Wink Elementary uses an Amazing Reading Program know as "GUIDED READING PROGRAM" along with "WRITER'S WORKSHOP" to ensure a collaborative balance between reading, comprehension and writing . As an ELAR TEACHER (Reading Teacher) I can vouch for the great success in my Student's comprehensive reading, and writing skills on and well above grade level!
"This year I am going to teach "MATH"! I am excited about the new adventure"!
We are blessed to be in an amazing school district, "who's focus is on what's best for our student's safety, wellbeing and education". So here is to another Amazing School Year at Wink Elementary!
