Welcome to Mrs. Kinnear's 4th & 5th Grade Math & Science Classroom.  This is my 5th year at Advantage Academy Grand Prairie West (GPW).  This is my eighth year as a classroom teacher and I have been certified in  Education since May 2007.  Advantage Academy GPW has been a very rewarding place to teach.  I so much enjoy spending time with students and helping them grow.  My philosophy is to never give up on students and I am determined to help each and every child learn.  

I graduated with a Bachelor of Science degree from Texas Christian University in 1987.  I returned to Texas Christian University and obtained my Teaching Certificate in 2007 while taking Graduate School classes.  My husband, James works at AAFES (Army & Air Force Exchange Services) corporate office as a Replenishment Analyst Level 2.  I live in Hurst, Texas with James and two dogs, Goldi and Charlie.  My mother is temporarily living with us too.

I hope to have a succcessful year and my door is always open to discuss anything regarding how to help your child excel in class and in life.  My email address is janice.kinnear@advantageacademy.org.
