Originally from Boston, Massachusetts, Samantha Burke was raised in Berryville where she attended school, K-12. She is a college graduate of the University of the Ozarks. Welcome back home, Ms. Burke!
She chose education because “every single day is an opportunity to grow and learn more. I love the prospect that there might be more for me to know than yesterday. I hope to inspire more kids to become lifelong learners and never shy away from curiosity. I am so excited to touch these babies minds and hearts. I can’t wait to learn just as much from these kiddos as they learn from me!” Samantha will teach kindergarten. In her spare time, she likes to do yoga, dance, hike, attend music festivals and spend time with friends and family. She is a “fur mama of my adorable tabbie T’Challa and my big Rottweiler, Saber.”
Ms. Burke doesn’t have children of her own, but she does have a little brother going to first grade this year. “He is my pride and joy and I’m so excited to be closer to him as he continues to grow as a learner.” Join us as we welcome Ms. Burke back into the Bobcat family!
