Crystal Magers

Hi!  My name is Crystal Magers and I am thrilled to be a part of David Harrison Elementary School!  I graduated from Missouri State University in 2006, with a Bachelors of Science in Elementary Education.  I also obtained my certification in Early Childhood Education.  I am currently working to obtain my Masters degree in Educational Administration, and will graduate in 2010.  I began my teaching career at York Elementary in a First Grade classroom, and have been teaching Kindergarten for the last two years.  I am very passionate about teaching young children and have a true love for learning. 

When I am not in my classroom I enjoy spending time with my husband Ryan and two daughters Nyah and Joslyn.   My family is truly my greatest accomplishment and joy thus far!  I also enjoy running, swimming, canoeing, music and anything near water! 

I am so excited to teach the children in Southwest Springfield and build relationships with each and every family.  Teaching is my passion and there is no greater joy than seeing a child learn to read and write.  My goal is to give every child a positive, fun experience in Kindergarten while showing them how smart they are. 

I am so excited to embark on a new adventure in my teaching career.  I consider teaching to be a team effort between parents, teachers and the student.  I feel fortunate to have a part on this team helping students to grow, learn, and become the best they can be!
