Hello! Welcome to the exciting time of Kindergarten! This is an amazing time in your child’s life, and I can’t wait to be a part of it! My journey in education has been amazing. I was born and raised in Columbus, Nebraska. After graduating from high school, I went on to attend college at Midland University in Fremont, Nebraska, where I studied and played collegiate soccer. After three and a half years, I graduated from Midland in 2016 with a degree in Elementary Education and endorsements in Early Childhood and Coaching. My husband and I moved to Norwalk, Iowa in the fall of 2016 after we were married and have loved every second of it. I am excited to continue my teaching career in Iowa and get to know your littles!
Hello, and Welcome to Hubbell! My name is Libby Green, and I am so excited for a new school year. Fall is my favorite season, for so many reasons with the fresh start of a school year always being one of them. I live in Des Moines with Jens-who works for Coca~Cola, my two children Max and Grace, and our six fur babies. In our free time we enjoy swimming, camping, biking, walking the dogs, yardwork, and anything else to soak up the sun outside. I am looking forward to an amazing year, meeting returning families and new!

Hello and welcome to Kindergarten! This is an exciting time in your child’s life, and I am excited to be a part of it! I graduated from Upper Iowa University with my bachelor’s degree in Elementary Education and a reading endorsement in 2011. That same year, I took my first teaching job with Des Moines as a first-grade teacher and continued my learning by attaining my ESL endorsement. The following year I started teaching Kindergarten and working on my Masters. Even though I completed my Masters in 2015, I am still teaching Kindergarten and just LOVE it! This is my calling! In addition to teaching, I am married with 3 children and several pets! My family and I love animals and being outdoors. Some of our favorite activities to do together include camping, fishing, hiking, swimming, and traveling!
