About The Teacher

Dear Parents,

	My name is Greta Burnikel, and I will be your child’s first grade 
teacher.  I’m very excited to begin my third year at Jollyville Elementary 
as well as creating a relationship with you and your child.  You will be 
amazed at the academic growth your child will make throughout the school 
year.  This is one reason why I love teaching first grade.

	My teaching experience consists of 12 years as a grade one teacher.  
I taught in Bismarck, ND for 4 years and from there I moved abroad and 
taught in Abu Dhabi, UAE for 5 years.  I was born and raised in North Dakota 
which is where I like to spend some of my summer time visiting family and 
friends.  I was fortunate to have the opportunity to teach abroad where I 
experienced many cultures through my extensive travels and the diversity of 
my student population.

		Your child is going to have a year filled with many 
accomplishments.  The teamwork between parent, teacher, and student is 
critical to the success of our children. Let's work together to make this 
year fantastic!  If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to 
bring them to my attention.  I can be reached before or after school by 
calling 428-2224.  I do communicate through email whenever possible, so feel 
free to send me a message at greta_burnikel@roundrockisd.org.

Sincerely,



Greta Burnikel
