Ms. Kinda Silas
Hi! My name is Ms. Kinda Silas and I am new to Cabarrus County Schools this year. I was born and raised in Lansing, Michigan. I moved to North Carolina in 2000. I have a spunky 10 year old daughter. I am so excited to be your child’s 2nd grade teacher for the 2020-2021 school year. I have 17 years of teaching experience. We are going to learn a lot and have fun as well.
I enjoy teaching and watching the magic that happens when a child's curiosity leads them to learn something new. It is my mission to make learning exciting and engaging to help students develop a desire to become life-long learners. Please reach out to me if you ever have any questions or concerns. It is very important to me to keep an open line of communication. I look forward to a great year together!
