Hello! My name is Ms. Farmer! I am your student's 4th grade DLI English Teacher. I am so excited to start my second year here at OJ Neighbours and partner with you to make this school year unforgettable.

This is my 6th year as a classroom educator and I can't wait to share my love of learning.

4th Grade DLI Teacher

Senor Camaras

I am from Cordoba, Spain and I arrived in Wabash last year with my wife Rebeca (who is also a Spanish Teacher at OJ) and my two boys. We really wanted to live this experience, since we love diversity, languages, different cultures, and traveling. I graduated from Cordoba College with a Bachelors of Education. This is my 12th year teaching and my 2nd year with WCS, participating in the Dual Language Immersion Program in Spanish. 
I love music (I play the guitar and piano. I participate in WACT musicals), singing and dancing, running, reading (especially poetry), traveling around the world and continuing to learn.

Mrs. Kirkpatrick

Hello! I am Mrs. Kirkpatrick, and I am 26 years old. I graduated from Indiana University in May of 2018. This year will be my fifth year teaching here at OJ Neighbours! I have had so much fun in my first four years here and I cannot wait to see how much fun this year will be!
My husband and I welcomed our first child, Theodore, into the world 6 months ago and we also have an 11 year old foster daughter at home. We live a very busy and crazy life, but we wouldn't have it any other way!
I am committed to creating a classroom environment where your child is valued, trusted, and an integral part of our family of learners. In order to accomplish this, I have planned a variety of activities to emphasize and reinforce this goal. It is my hope that you will support and encourage this vision at home.
