Jessica Tillman

Hello and welcome to 4th grade! My name is Mrs. Tillman and I am ecstatic to be at Christ the King Catholic School. This is a very special place to be and I feel lucky to call it home. A little about myself:

I earned my bachelor’s degree in Art History from the University of California Riverside. While at the university, I accepted an internship at the Riverside Art Museum where I helped develop art curriculum for visiting children. It was at the museum and with the encouragement of my parents, that I realized teaching was the path God was calling me to take. I started teaching at the junior high level and worked toward my teaching credential at Mount Saint Mary’s University in Los Angeles. Upon completion of my coursework, I earned my multiple subject credential. I then began teaching 4th grade and have been teaching this level ever since. Working with this age group is the best because they start to understand how things are connected and to see the bigger picture in their learning. As a teacher, I partner with parents in the spiritual and educational development of their children, so I feel very blessed to be in the classroom every day.
