• Welcome to First Grade! 

    My name is Mrs. Warren formerly known as Mrs. Borkey.  I earned my elementary and special education teaching certification from Kutztown University and my Master's Degree in Instructional Media and Technology with a STEM endorsement from Wilkes University. I am currently pursuing a second Master's Degree in Mass Customized Learning through Wilson College. I have been teaching since 2001.  I have had a pretty diverse teaching career.  I started out teaching junior high emotional support in the Wilson School District, then taught kindergarten for six years before deciding to take some time off to raise my family.  Upon returning to the classroom, I moved to the Schuylkill Valley School District where I taught 5th & 6th grade reading, 3rd grade, 1st grade, and high school life skills.  All of those teaching experiences have led me to Hamburg where I taught 3rd grade for one year and I have been teaching 1st grade for five years.  I look forward to an exciting year! 

    I am the proud mother of four fabulous kids who keep me busy when I'm not in the classroom.  Logan is 23, and is a Social Studies Teacher at SVMS. He is an Eagle Scout and loves corgis and learning about history. Connor is 22, and recently graduated from Penn State University. He is also an Eagle Scout who loves to bowl and deals Black Jack in a casino. Sharon is 20, and is a full-time nanny. Sharon loves working with toddlers and is thinking about being a kindergarten teacher. Galen is 16 and is in 11th grade this year. Galen is a Boy Scout who loves to build Legos. He is also a runner and a pole vaulter. In addition to four kids, we also adopted three big, crazy, adorable, naughty dogs from a rescue. You will hear plenty of stories about how they're always getting into trouble.

    When I'm not teaching or spending time with my children, I love reading, hiking, biking, kayaking, eating, baking, traveling, and going to the beach.
