About Mrs. Petrony
Hello! My name is Kristin Petrony. I was born and raised in a small town just outside of Youngstown, Ohio. I graduated from Youngstown State University in 2002 with a Bachelor's degree in Elementary Education. I moved to Las Vegas in 2003 and began teaching 5th grade. In 2007, I earned my Master's degree in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages (TESOL) from Nova Southeastern University. In June 2014, my family and I relocated to the Nashville area to experience new things and to give our son more space to run and play. In October of 2014, I earned a second Masters degree from Concordia University in Mathematics Curriculum and Instruction. For the past 18 years, I have been a 4th grade teacher, a 5th grade teacher, an elementary math coach, and I taught a Math Methods class for the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. I look forward to helping my students love math as much as I do!
I am married and we have one son named Samuel and two great little dogs. Our family loves baseball! We especially love the Cleveland Indians. We also love to be outdoors hiking and kayaking. In addition to teaching, I am a personal trainer at a local gym here in Nashville and I'm a competitive powerlifter. I compete 1-2 times per year and I LOVE it!
Some of my favorites are:
Favorite Book: The Harry Potter Series
Favorite Movie: Rocky IV
Favorite Super Hero: Wonder Woman
Favorite Color: Green
Favorite Music: Country Music- Garth Brooks is my favorite
Favorite Food: Pizza and Tacos
Favorite Drink: Cherry Coke Zero and Diet Dr. Pepper
