Dear Families-  
My name is Mrs. Golon. I am so excited for my third year teaching 4th grade here at John Jenkins Elementary! I look forward to meeting you and getting to know your child. Together we will achieve great success and have a fantastic year! 
I grew up in Delaware where I got my bachelor’s at the University of Delaware. After graduating I quickly received my Masters in Elementary Education at Wilmington University. I taught elementary for 6 years in Virginia Beach and Norfolk, Virginia where I also pursued and achieved a licensure in Gifted Education. Then, I taught 5th grade in Bahrain for two years before having my 4 beautiful children. I also have extensive experience with Autism, ADHD, and Dyslexia.  
This summer was a busy one! All of my children are on a summer swim team. We spent every day at the pool and up at 4:30am every Saturday morning for swim meets. It was exhausting, but so much fun for us all! 
I can’t wait to meet you and start an exciting year at Jenkins!

Dear Jenkins Families,

I am thrilled to introduce myself as your child's teacher for the upcoming academic year. My name is Arnaldo Perez, and I am delighted to be returning to Jenkins for my second year. Born and raised in the beautiful country of Belize, I bring 16 years of teaching experience to the classroom. I hold a bachelor’s degree in Primary Education and am currently pursuing a Master's degree in Education from a university in Mexico.

On a personal note, I am happily married to Ms. Nah, a dedicated kindergarten teacher here at Jenkins. We are proud parents of a vibrant three-year-old son, Matthew, who is a fan of The Paw Patrols. In my free time, I enjoy exploring the outdoors with my family, whether it's walking or cycling.

I am eager to collaborate with you and your child to make this academic year exceptional. Together, we will strive to unlock their full potential and achieve outstanding success.

 

Warm regards,

Mr. Arnaldo Perez
