Hi, my name is Jen Duman and I am one of the kindergarten teachers here at Pittsfield.

This is my 17^th year teaching here at Pittsfield, I have taught grades K-3 and various multi-age combinations within these grades (K-1-2, 1-2-3, 1-2).  I love seeing the progress that students make, both academically and socially in kindergarten, it’s unlike any other grade level!

A little bit about myself, I graduated from Albion College in 1995 with a degree in French and Elementary Education. I later received Master’s Degrees from Marygrove College in the Art of Teaching, and from Walden University in Elementary Reading and Literacy.

My husband, Bob is a Senior Systems Engineer at WorkForce Software in Livonia.

We have two daughters. McKenna Claire is 6 years old and Savannah Paige is 4. 

McKenna is a first grader at Pittsfield this year!  As a parent of a current Pittsfield student, I can really relate to many of the things you are experiencing with your children.  I would love to talk with you about your child’s development, and all the trials and tribulations that come with being a parent!

We all live in Whitmore Lake with our Dog, Soco.

 In my spare time, I enjoy reading, scrapbooking, swimming, and sleeping (any spare moment I get

 If you would like to learn more about me, or how our kindergarten classroom works, I would love to hear from you at duman@aaps.k12.mi.us

Thanks for reading,

Jen Duman
