Who Am I?
Hello! My name is Alice Irwin and I am a kindergarten teacher at New Holland Elementary. I hold a Bachelor’s Degree in Elementary Education from West Chester University, and a Master’s Degree in Early Literacy from Wilkes University.
I began my teaching career with the Chester County IU as an Even Start Family Literacy kindergarten teacher, and joined the New Holland Elementary team in 2005.
I live with my husband, Chris and my daughter, Kylie. We have one dog, Roxie, and two cats, Shasta and Tuddy.
When I am at home I enjoy working in our garden and doing crafts with Kylie.

8. I played the flute in elementary school, but I liked chorus better! Now I just sing really loud in the car (the kitchen, the yard, at school–wherever the mood strikes me 🙂

10. I flip through magazines backwards. Don’t worry, I promise not to set a bad example 🙂
