Hi, My name is Dawn Kuechle. I have been teaching at Eden Valley-Watkins for 20 years. This is my 17^th year in Kindergarten. I currently teach at the Watkins Elementary. I earned my degree in Elementary Education, Kindergarten, and coaching from St. Cloud State University. I received my Masters Degree from Southwest State University in 1998.

 Kindergarten is a fun and exciting age to work with. I enjoy and believe that meeting the needs of each student is what teaching is all about.  Providing a safe and happy environment helps nurture all students to feel confident.  I feel that every student is special and unique and they learn in different ways.  

 I enjoy spending my free time with family and friends. My husband Ken and I have four children and we live in Kimball. I like to read, go camping, walking, and volunteering to help others.
