Hello!  My name is Ms. Charde' Cooks.  This is my fifth year as a Kindergarten Teacher and my 8th year working for the district.  I graduated from The University of North Texas with Bachelor’s degrees in Interdisciplinary Studies EC-6 and all levels of Special Education. I also graduated from The University og Lamar with a Master's degree in Education Technology Leadership.  In my free time, I enjoy spending time with my family, walking my dogs, arts and crafts, and shopping. I am very excited to be teaching at Lake Ridge Elementary and hope to positively influence all my students to love learning. Get ready for meaningful activities, experiences and fun!
