Shannon Newman

Shannon Newman teaches PreK-2.  She began teaching at Allen Academy in 2007. Originally from Angleton, Texas, she has lived in College Station for the past 18 years.  Shannon graduated from Texas A&M University in 1996 with a degree in Recreation, Park and Tourism specializing in Convention and Event Coordinating. She found her love for teaching substituting in local schools and volunteering in her own children’s classrooms. The satisfaction of being in the classroom with the students, teaching them and watching their love of learning led her to complete her Texas teaching certification in Early Childhood through fourth grade in 2006.  Shannon’s goal as a teacher is to provide each child with a nurturing, loving, enriched learning environment that will increase his or her love of learning for years to come.  She strives to instill in her students the feeling that they are a “classroom family”. 

When not teaching she enjoys spending time with her husband, Jason, and our two wonderful daughters, Madison and Payton.
