Meet kindergarten teacher Hillary Pedersen

Hello! I am Hillary Pedersen, a kindergarten teacher at Ernie Pyle. I have been working at Ernie Pyle since I first started teaching eight years ago. I spent the first six years teaching sixth grade and then decided to make the jump to kindergarten. I love being a primary teacher and seeing how our students absorb the learning with high energy and excitement. I am also the Technology Instructional Leader on campus and enjoy helping all of you have an easier time integrating technology into our teaching. When I am not at work, you can find me with my family- my husband and 4-year-old twins.

Free Virtual Parent Workshop in Spanish

Topic: “The Emotional and Mental Effects of the Pandemic on the Lives of Your Children”


Objective: Parents will learn to differentiate between bad behavior and deteriorating mental health in their teens/children. Children scream for belonging and significance through kind and firm parenting when misbehaving. In addition, parents will obtain practical tools to improve their self-care to better their parenting.


You are invited to this free parent class opportunity offered to Ernie Pyle families by Disciplina Positiva.


“Children and Teens do better when they feel better” - Dr. Jane Nelsen.


This Conference is a Monthly Complementary Parenting Training for our parents because we have a relationship with Disciplina Positiva.
