Welcome to the 2020-2021 school year!  My name is Analise Gartner and I am so excited to be your child's teacher this year!  This is my first year at Buckland Mills, but my seventh year teaching first grade.  I am beginning my tenth year teaching and have six years of international teaching experience in three different countries. I also taught for three years in Arizona.  I have my Masters in Education as well as a Reading Specialist Certificate.  

I’m originally from Alexandria, and am excited to be back in Northern Virginia.  Outside of teaching, I enjoy reading, getting out in nature, and traveling.  I have one dog named Ellie who has been getting a lot of walks during this time!     

I am looking forward to working with you to help support your child's growth and development throughout the school year.
