Welcome to Our Class!

All About Me My experience My name is Hannah Krug. I am a Georgia native and currently live in Kennesaw, Georgia. This is my fifth year with the Cobb County school system. I received my Bachelor’s of Science degree from Kennesaw State University and am currently pursuing my Master’s of Education from KSU.This is my third year in First Grade! I absolutely love it and Compton is the best school around!  Please let me know if you ever have any questions or concerns about your child. You can contact me through the school phone-770.222.3700, email-Hannah.Krug@cobbk12.org. You can also contact me via Class DOJO or the student agenda. My experience

Classroom Community Expectations for Behavior Our classroom is a community. In our community, we have rules to help us get along with each other. Our class rules are: Respect and Teamwork always! DOJO points= rewards

My Goals To provide a meaningful, enriching, and challenging learning environment for all students. To equip students with the necessary skills to be successful this year and in the future. We talk a lot about strategies and when and when not to take a short cut! My hope is to make things easier.
