Mrs. Sipple 2024-2025

I am entering my 31st year teaching in Penn Trafford, all but 1 year here at Trafford Elementary. I taught 18 years in first grade, 1 year in fifth grade, and am entering my 12th year in third grade. Both my B.S. in Business and Masters in Education are from the University of Pittsburgh. When I am not in school or working on schoolwork at home, I keep busy with my husband and four kids. My son and daughters range in age from 16-24 and are very involved with sports. You can always find us at a ball field or pool! I love all kinds of sports, reading, and taking care of my cat and dog.

I am excited for another year of seeing the students grow educationally, physically, mentally, socially..... We are in for a great year!

Please never hesitate to contact me through my email or the Homework Book.

Have a great day!

Mrs. Sipple
