    Hello! My name is Vanessa Blades and I am honored to be your child’s third grade teacher for the 2018-19 school year! I absolutely LOVE this age! This will be my second year at Centennial and I couldn't be happier to be a part of the Cardinal family! Third grade is a huge year of growth for students and will be filled with lots of learning, hard work, and most of all, FUN! 
     
    A little bit about me: I am an Arizona native and was born and raised right here in Gilbert! I love being able to call this incredible community my home. I graduated from Northern Arizona University with a Bachelor's degree in Elementary and Special Education. Teaching is my passion and what I was born to do! When I am not in my classroom, my hobbies include spending time with my family, reading, drinking coffee, and shopping at Target!
     
    I am looking forward to getting to know all of my students and their families this school year! Please do not hesitate to contact me with any questions, comments, or concerns.
