Profile:

My name is Chalyse Danka and I am a second grade teacher at Curtisville Primary Center.  I have taught at Deer Lakes since 2003.  Prior to Deer Lakes I taught kindergarten in North Carolina for 3 years. 
 
I became a teacher because I wanted to make a positive difference in children's lives.  My classroom is a student centered place where learning is so much fun!  I strive to create a safe and caring classroom that is welcoming for all.  I cannot imagine a more rewarding career than watching little minds grow!
 
My family and I live in Sarver.  I am married and have two beautiful daughters; Lucia and Isabetta.
