Dear Parent(s) and/or Guardian(s),

 

Welcome to 3rd grade! We are Mrs. Kendra Broadway and Mrs. Deanna Woods, and we are excited to welcome your child to our classroom for the 2026–2027 school year.

 

Together, we have nearly 40 years of teaching experience and have partnered together for over 15 years. By combining our strengths, we are able to provide more in-depth instruction, individualized support, and engaging learning experiences for every student.

 

A little about us:

  • Mrs. Broadway is a Prattville native and graduate of Auburn University with a master’s degree from Troy University. This is her 18th year teaching at Daniel Pratt Elementary.
  • Mrs. Woods is also a Prattville native and graduated from Auburn University at Montgomery before earning her master’s degree from Troy University. She is beginning her 23rd year teaching at Daniel Pratt Elementary.

 

Our goal is to provide a positive, safe, and engaging classroom where every child feels valued, challenged, and encouraged to reach their full potential. We believe that support from home and school is the key to a successful year, and we look forward to partnering with your family.

 

We can’t wait to get to know your child and make this a fun, memorable, and successful school year!

Sincerely,

 

Kendra Broadway

Bio

Education

 I grew up in Prattville and graduated from Prattville High School in 2000.  I attended Auburn University in Montgomery and received my Bachelor's Degree in Childhood Education in 2004.  I also graduated from Troy University in Montgomery in May of 2006 with my Master's Degree in Elementary Education.

 

Experience

I have been teaching at Daniel Pratt since 2004.  I began teaching first grade, and I am currently teaching third grade. 

 

Philosophy

It is my goal as a professional educator to reach out and accommodate the needs of each and every student.  All children are different and have different styles of learning.  Whether the children I teach are kinesthetic, visual, or auditory learners, I will adapt my teaching towards the style of each student's learning in order to increase the quality of their education.  I will strive to teach in a way that all children can learn.  In order to promote the children's learning, I will provide a hands-on classroom where my students are engaged in the lesson while actively learning.  The students in my classroom will also have the opportunity to communicate with their peers throughout the day, as I believe children learn from one another.  I will provide a positive and safe atmosphere along with a developmentally appropriate learning environment to motivate the learning of each student.
