=Welcome to the classroom of Mrs. Haven=

After 14 years of teaching with Kentwood Public Schools in another program, I am excited to be returning for my fifth year at Valleywood Middle School. I am an East Kentwood graduate. I was in the first 8th grade class that ever attended Valleywood. I also am the parent of three children who attended Valleywood. I am excited to now be a part of the exemplary Valleywood teaching staff. I look forward to helping your child become a responsible and successful student.

I have a Bachelor of Arts degree from Western Michigan University with an English major and a Communications minor. I am also certified to work with students with Learning Disabilities and Emotional Impairments with a Special Education degree from Grand Valley State University.

I love to travel to warm destinations and spend most of my summer boating out of Holland. I have four wonderful grandchildren that I spoil as often as possible. My son and his wife are expecting twin boys the first week of December so I am excited about a double addition to our family.
