Hi! My name is Marmendy Thompson and I have the pleasure to teach Kindergarten.

I graduated from TCU with a BS in Elementary Education in 1997, and have been teaching since. I have been married to Mr. Thompson for 23 years, and we have an 18 year old daughter, Mathilda.

I love Kindergarteners! Kinder is my home, and I am passionate about teaching your children. My favorite thing to do is read! I was named after a song.

I graduated from Texas Wesleyan University with a Bachelors in Early Childhood through 6th grade education in 2013. I have been teaching early childhood since 2013. I taught with the Head Start program for two and a half years, before being hired to teacher Kindergarten for FWISD 2015. I am dedicated to my students. I am passionate about my chosen career. I will do everything in my power to make sure my students succeed, believe in themselves, and strive to do their best.

I read, a lot. Pretty much anything I can get my hands on, but my favorite genre is historical fiction, and my favorite author is Jane Austen. My family and I love to travel. New Orleans is my favorite city to visit in the United States, it is rich with culture, history, and amazing food. My favorite place outside of the United States is Turkey, for the same reasons, but mostly the food. I could eat Mediterranean food every day of my life.
