🎉✨ SVUSD Teacher Feature of the Month: November - Mrs. Natalie Wise, Huachuca Mountain ✨🎉
We’re thrilled to spotlight Mrs. Natalie Wise, an exceptional kindergarten teacher at Huachuca Mountain Elementary School. With six years of teaching experience, Mrs. Wise brings creativity, innovation, and a deep passion for early childhood education to her classroom daily.
Married to a retired military veteran, Mrs. Wise began her SVUSD journey as a kindergarten paraprofessional at PDS. Her family’s military path took her from Fort Huachuca to Texas and Alaska, where she earned her degree and spent three years teaching kindergarten. While in Alaska, she embraced place-based education, using the local environment to enrich learning—a practice she now integrates with SVUSD’s new science curriculum! 🌱🐻
Mrs. Wise’s classroom is alive with hands-on learning and joy! From fishing for letters and sight words to math lessons with “Ten Pigs in a Tub,” her students engage through play, movement, and creativity. Yoga brain breaks and midline-crossing exercises enhance coordination and build skills in reading, writing, and math. 🧘♀️📚
This year, Mrs. Wise introduced Huachuca Mountain’s Kindergarten Jumpstart Program, helping new students transition smoothly into school life. She also mentors new teachers, revitalized the school garden, and led the Balloons Over Broadway Parade. Inspired by the book of the same name, the event taught students about the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade as they designed their own balloons for a Huachuca Mountain celebration. 🎈🎨
Outside the classroom, Mrs. Wise enjoys hiking, gardening, spending time with her husband and daughters, and working toward her yoga instructor certification. She also revived the district-wide Kindergarten PLC, fostering collaboration among teachers to enhance teaching and learning.
Currently pursuing National Board Certification, Mrs. Wise exemplifies lifelong learning and excellence in education. 🌟
We are so grateful to have Mrs. Wise as part of our Huachuca Mountain family. Her dedication to students and the community is truly inspiring. 💛

This morning, JCMS honored our veterans with a special Veterans Day breakfast!
Family members and staff who served our country were welcomed with a beautiful performance by the JCMS band as they made their way to the library, where a delicious breakfast spread awaited. Mrs. Villafane sang the national anthem, setting a heartfelt tone for the event. It was a wonderful morning filled with conversations, shared memories, and gratitude.
A special thank you to our Social Studies Department, the Family Engagement Committee—especially Mrs. Niffen—and everyone at JCMS who came together to make this event happen. Our JCMS Student Council members joined in, chatting with our honored guests and showing appreciation.
We extend our deepest thanks to all veterans for their service and sacrifices, especially those within our district, like Mr. Bennett, a Navy veteran, and Mr. Davidson, a Marine Corps veteran. We are proud to have you as part of our community! 💙 #ThankYouVeterans #JCMSFamily #Empowering You #SVUSDProudARatedDistrict
