About Me:  My name is Mrs. Hackett. I am a graduate of the University of Southern California (USC) and I received my Multiple Subject teaching credential from Brandman University, part of the Chapman University system. I had the pleasure of teaching 4th grade English Language Arts and Social Studies at Life Source International Charter School during the 2013-2014 school year. I am very excited about teaching another year of 4th grade! Mission Statement: My mission is to create a positive, safe, and welcoming classroom environment in which all scholars will be challenged to do their best individually and collectively each day. Through a collaborative effort with parents and scholars, my classroom will cultivate a community of lifelong learners, who enjoy learning, excel academically, and make positive contributions to our society.
