Hello and Welcome to Third Grade!

My name is Ms. Tata, and I am excited to be joining the Arlington School District this year. This is my fourth year teaching, and with each year, I feel more blessed to be in this field. My passion for teaching began at a young age, and my educational experiences influenced my decision to pursue this career right after high school.

I am incredibly grateful to be working in a district that shares my vision for education. I prioritize building a strong classroom community where every student feels safe, respected, confident, and eager to learn. My goal is to inspire my students to be lifelong learners by fostering a growth mindset, truly believing that abilities can develop through dedication and hard work. In our classroom, challenges are embraced, and respect for one another is crucial. I’m excited to create opportunities for self-directed learning and support each student in reaching their full potential.

On a more personal note, I am a proud mama to two amazing boys. My five-year-old, John, has just started Kindergarten, and I have a soon-to-be one-year-old, Dominick, who keeps our family on its toes. You’ll hear many stories about them throughout the year. We recently bought a house and are enjoying the journey of home ownership. In my free time, I love crafting with my Cricut, capturing moments through photography, and spending quality time with my family.

I am looking forward to a fantastic year ahead, filled with growth, learning, and fun. If you ever have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out. Communication is key! Together, we can make this year a fantastic experience for your child.
