    Welcome to Kindergarten, scholars of Room 5!  My name is Tara Stevens and I'm a Kindergarten teacher here at Rosa Parks Community School.  I have been teaching in Orange for 18 years, and have spent the last 9 of those in Kindergarten.  I look forward to having a successful, rewarding, challenging, and exciting year with your child! 
     
    This year, I have the privilege of hosting a student teacher from Montclair State University, Miss Coccoz.  She will be with us on a daily basis until December and we are happy to have her experience Kindergarten in our classroom!
