Hello Families,

My name is Kim Pavlinsky and I am so excited to be joining the Rooster Springs Community! I have been teaching for 8 years now, ranging in grades Pre-K through 2nd. I started my career teaching in Vermont and moved to Texas 3 years ago to warm up a bit! Since moving to Austin I have been teaching at a charter school in East Austin that focused on Social and Emotional growth, the outdoors and Project Based Learning. 

I have always loved working with children and think that their honesty, curiosity and imagination make everyday exciting and a new adventure! My teaching philosophy is one that embraces children’s interests as a way to encourage their drive to learn. I invite them to learn about the world around them in an interesting and engaging ways that empowers them as important members of the community both large and small.

When not at school I enjoy spending time in nature, biking, paddling boarding or hiking with my dog.  I am also a huge foodie and love cooking and baking for my friends and family! I love to bring my interests into the classroom  and would love for you do do the same! 

I look forawrd to getting to know and become part of the RSES communty! :)
