Hello!  My name is Rebecca VanLemmeren, and I am so happy to be a kindergarten teacher at Light Farms Elementary.  I have taught kindergarten for six years, and also taught in the upper grade for one year.  I was thrilled to join the Light Farms Staff as a kindergarten teacher.  Each year has been a wonderful experience getting to know the children, becoming a team in the classroom, as well as helping student's shine as unique individuals. 

     I moved to this flourishing area of North Texas two years ago from my home in California.  I married my amazing husband, Zach in May 2018. We welcommed a beautiful baby girl this summer! We are loving every minute of parenthood! We also have a sweet and spunky husky puppy, who also tests our parenting skills! 

    When I was little, I always knew I wanted to be a teacher. I loved being involved in my mom’s kindergarten classroom and learning from the best! I had a wonderful education at San Diego State University graduating Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Arts and a specialization in Theater. My mom and dad continue to be involved in my teaching career (even long distance)! 

     I am excited to start this year! I can’t wait to smile, laugh, sing, dance, and learn with your child!
