Welcome to Kindergarten!

My name is Yvette Gaskins and I love teaching kindergarten! This is my ninth year teaching kindergarten at Emmons. My goal is to always create a comfortable, exciting, safe, and challenging learning environment! I strive to encourage my students to become lifelong learners.  I believe it is essential to work as a team, to ensure each child grows academically, emotionally, and socially.

Fun Facts About Me: I grew up in West Orange, NJ. I married my high school sweetheart in July of 2015. We have a beautiful daughter, Nora and a grey beagle/lab dog named Bella. I am a twin! We love to cook together. My favorite season is fall. My favorite sport is basketball!
